I think that 3 rolls is wrong and that 6 rolls is right. If you create a 15 by 15 square and draw two lines through the center that connect to the opposite corner, you'll be able to use the Pythagorean Theorem.
Perimeter: 15+15+15+15=60ft.
Length of Line from Corner to Corner:
(15)(15)+(15)(15)=C^2
225+225=C^2
450=C^2
21.2=C
21.2(2)= 42.4ft.
42.4ft.+60ft.= 102.4ft.
102.4ft. divided by 20ft. = 5.12 = <u>6 rolls</u>
Answer: #7 is A and #8 is D
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: There are 97 nickels and 108 quarters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = Number of nickels, y = Number of quarters.
As per given,
x+y = 205 ...(i)
0.05x+0.25y = 31.85 ... (ii) [1 nickel = $0.05, 1 quarter = $ 0.25]
Multiply (ii) by 20, we get
x+5y=637 ...(iii)
Eliminate (i) from (iii)
4y = 432
⇒ y = 108 [Divide both sides by 4]
Put value of y in (i), we get

Hence, there are 97 nickels and 108 quarters.
The answer is has to be D
