Answer:

Mrs. Sanders has 20, 1 dollar coins and 60, 50 cent coins.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Let x be the 1 dollar coins and y be the number of 50 cents coins.

Total number of coins = 80

Thus, we can write the equation:

x + y = 80

Total amount =  $50

Thus, we can write the equation:

x + 0.5y = 50

Solving the two equations by elimination, we get,

x+y-(x+0.5y) = 80-50\\0.5y = 30\\\Rightarrow y = 60\\\Rightarrow x = 80-y = 80-60=20

Thus, Mrs. Sanders has 20, 1 dollar coins and 60,  50 cent coins.

What is y=7/3x+5?<br> x=-3
andrew11 [14]
Hello!

Ok so we have y= 7/3x + 5 and initial condition of x=-3 so we just plug -3 in for x and chug along at this point! :)

y=(7/3)*(-3/1)+5= -7+5 = -2

Hope this helps! Any questions please just ask! Thank you!!
