Answer:

8 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Amount of Money owned by Jason=$10

1 nickel =$0.05

1 dime=$0.10

1 quarter =$0.25

  • Let the number of dimes =d
  • Let the number of nickels =n
  • Let the number of quarters =q

If there were twice as many dimes as Nickels, then:

  • d=2n

Also, there were twice as many quarters as dimes.

  • q=2d

Therefore:

0.1d+0.05n+0.25q=100

Substituting d=2n and q=2d into the above relations

0.1(2n)+0.05n+0.25(2d)=10

0.2n+0.05n+0.25(2(2n))=10

0.2n+0.05n+1n=10

1.25n=10

n=8

q=2d=2X16=32

d=2n=2X8=16

Jason had 8 nickels

Answer:
x¹³ - x⁹ - 9x⁸ + 9x⁴

Explanation:
Before we begin, remember the following:
xᵃ * xᵇ = xᵃ⁺ᵇ

Now, for the given:
To answer the question, we will simply multiply each term from the first bracket by each term from the second bracket and then combine like terms to get the final expression.

This can be done as follows:
(x⁸ - x⁴)(x⁵ - 9)
x⁸(x⁵) + x⁸(-9) - x⁴(x⁵) - x⁴(-9)
x¹³ - 9x⁸ - x⁹ + 9x⁴

Rearrange in order of decreasing powers, we will end up with:
x¹³ - x⁹ - 9x⁸ + 9x⁴

Hope this helps :)
