I’m guessing that this is for systems of equations?
n - nickels
d - dimes

These are the equations you start off with.
n = 5d-2
0.95 = 0.10d+0.05n

Substitute the top equation for n into the variable n in the bottom equation.
0.95 = 0.10d+0.05(5d-2)

Solve for d.
0.95 = 0.10d+0.25d-0.10
1.05 = 0.35d
3 = d

Substitute d into the top equation and solve for n.
n = 5(3)-2
n = 15-3
n = 12

There are 3 dimes and 12 nickels in the coin purse! Hope this helped <3

Maslowich
<span>Carol noticed that 7/10 of the children playing soccer were girls. Which statement could be correct?
A. There were 28 girls and 12 boys playing soccer.
28 : x% = 40 (the total number of children) : 100%
40x = 28 * 100
40x = 2800
x = 2800 / 40
x = 70%
There were 70% of girls in the class.
70 / 100 = 0.7
7/ 10 = 0.7
This is why A is the correct answer.
