Part A: 0.10x + 0.25 = 0.80 (dimes are 10 cents or 0.10 dollars, quarters are 0.25 dollars)
Part B: Plug in what you DO know and solve the one you DON’T:
0.10x + 0.25(2) = 0.80
0.10x + 0.50 = 0.80. Subtract 0.50 from both sides:
0.10x = 0.30 (Divide both sides by 0.10)
x = 3
Therefore you have 3 dimes
Its impossible to draw a trapezoid with just three right angles.
a trapezoid has 4 sides, which means all the angles inside the trapezoid must add up to 360 degrees.
if you have just 3 right angles (90x3), you already use up 270 degrees. Leaving you with just 90 degrees left, which is also a right angle. That means, there has to be four, if you have at least 3.
Percentage is out of a 100. Therefore, 35/100
Simplify 35/100
Becomes 7/20
Fraction of 35% is 7/20
