So, you have to have your equation in terms of dimes. What you said about what he has: four more nickels than dimes in his pocket. Will help with our equation.
We know what a nickel and dime is worth. A nickel is .05 and a dime is .1
We don't know how many dimes are in his pocket, since we're trying to solve it.
.1x+(4+x).05=1.25;
In the parenthesis, it shows how there are four more nickels. Let's solve it now.
.1x + (4+x).05=1.25
.1x + .2+ .05x = 1.25; Let's add like terms.
.15x + .2 = 1.25; Subtract .2 from both sides.
.15x= 1.05
1.05÷.15= 7 =x
There are 7 dimes in his pocket, let's check our answer.
We now know there are 11 nickels, since there are four more nickels than dimes.
11(.05) +.1(7) = 1.25
.55+ .7 = 1.25
Now that we've tried it, we know there are 7 dimes in his pocket.
Tell me if this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of a rectangle is calculated as
Perimeter= 2(length + breadth )
So, Perimeter = 2*length + 2*breadth
Now we are given the length as 34.2 meters and breadth as 27.8 meters
So the perimeter will be
2(34.2+27.8) meters
which equals 2(62) meters
Hence Perimeter = 124 meters
The last one. The starting temperature was 82°
