<h3>Answer:  </h3><h3>There are 75 coins that aren't nickels. </h3><h3>One equation you could use is 75+n = 92</h3>

(This solves to n = 17 meaning there are 17 nickels)

=====================================================

Explanation:

"There are 25 ​pennies, 21 ​dimes, and 29 quarters", so there are 25+21+29 = 75 coins so far. This is the amount of coins that aren't nickels. The rest are nickels, which is some amount n. This adds to the 75 to get 75+n. Set this equal to 92 because there are 92 coins in all. That's how we end up with 75+n = 92.

-----

Extra info

The equation 75+n = 92 is the same as n+75 = 92. Subtract 75 from both sides to isolate n. You should get n = 17 after doing so.

Answer:

y= 8

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Triangle we know,

W+Y+X=180 degree

then,

(180-52)+(4y-4)+3y=180

or, 128+4y-4+3y= 180

or, 7y= 180- 124

or, y= 56/7

or, y= 8
