Nickels = x
dimes = x + 4
quarters = x
Value of coins:
nickel = 5 cents
dime = 10 cents
quarter = 25 cents
5x + 10(x + 4) + 25x = 3.20
5x + 10x + 40 + 25x = 320
40x = 320 - 40
40x = 280
x = 280/40
x = 7
There are 7 quarters, 7 nickels and 11 dimes.
Answer:
X = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
In the equation add 3 to both sides of the equation
1/2x-3+3=2-3/4x+3
Simplify
1/2x = -3/4x + 5
Add 3/4x to both sides
1/2x + 3/4x = -3/4x + 5 + 3/4x
Simplify
5/4x=5 Multiply both sides by 5
5x=20 divide both sides by 5
5x divided by 5 and 20 divided by 5
=4
This is equivalent to -1 ( 4 - 3 )
which simplified is -1
because 4-3 is 1 and 1 times -1 is -1
Hope this helps ;)
Based on the given situation above, the given values are 8 kilometers and 24 minutes. To simplify these values, we will come up with the result of 1 km in 3 minutes. Therefore, the winner of the New York marathon ran 0.33 kms per one minute so the runners unit rate is 0.33kms/minute.
3/5*3/3=9/15
1/3*5/5=5/15
15 is a common denominator.
