Answer:

The number of nickel = 3

Number of dime =  1

Number of quarter  = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the number of nickels Meghan has = m

So, the number of dimes she has = m -2

And the number of quarters she has = 1  + 2 m

Now, the total amount she has  = $2.00

1 nickel = $0.05  ⇒  m nickel =  m ($0.05)  = 0.05 m

1 dime = $0.10 ⇒  (m -2) dime =  m-2  ($0.10)  = 0.10 (m-2)

1 quarter  = $0.25  ⇒  (1+ 2m) quarter = (1+ 2m) ($0.25)  = 0.25 (1+2m)

So, according to the question:

Amount of (nickel + dime + quarter) = $2.00

⇒  0.05 m +  0.10 (m-2) +  0.25 (1+2m) = 2

or, 0.05 m + 0.10 m - 0.20 + 0.25  + 0.5 m = 2

or, 0.65 m = 2 - 0.05

or, m = 1.95/0.65 =  3

or,  m  = 3

Hence, the number of nickel = 3

Number of dime =   m -2  =  3-2  =   1

and Number of quarter = 2m + 1 = 7

Jolene invests her savings in two bank accounts, one paying 4 percent and the other paying 10 percent simple interest per year.
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

<h2>$ 22200 in higher yielding bank and $ 44400 in lower yielding bank</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

       Jolene invests in two bank accounts. The first account gives a 4% interest per year and the second bank gives a 10% interest rate per year.

       She puts twice as much in the lower yielding bank account. Let us denote the amount put in high yielding bank account by x. Lower yielding bank account will have 2x.

       Interest\text{ }per\text{ }year=Principal\times Interest\text{ }rate

Interest from lower yielding bank = \dfrac{4}{100} \times 2x=\dfrac{8x}{100}

Interest from higher yielding bank = \dfrac{10}{100} \times x=\dfrac{10x}{100}

Total Interest per year = $ 3996 = \dfrac{8x}{100} +\dfrac{10x}{100}=\dfrac{18x}{100}

x=22200 \$

∴ Jolene invested $ 22200 in higher yielding bank and $ 44400 in lower yielding bank.
