I think in this situation the best method would be a guess and check. You know that there are 8 dimes more than there are nickels. So just keep increasing each number by one until you reach $1.40. If there were 9 dimes and 1 nickels it would add up to $0.95. If there were 10 dimes and 2 nickels, it would add up to $1.10. If there were 11 dimes and 3 nickels, it would add up to $1.25. If there were 12 dimes and 4 nickels, it would add up to $1.40. So your answer is 12 dimes and 4 nickels.

I hope this helped!

d = n + 8

10d + 5n = 140

Solve this equations: d = 12 ∧ n = 4

A tool like photomath can solve this step by step for you.

12 Dimes and 4 Nickels.

Hi

Left to do 40% of the shopping

12 items ⇒ 60% of the items
x items ⇒ 40% of the items

60x = 12(40)
60x = 480
x = 480/60
x = 48/6
x = 8 items 

Answer:

Left 8 items of the list (40% of the shopping)

Vikentia [17]

The recursive definition for the amount of the blood pressure medicine in hareem bloodstream after n hours would be a_1=25, a_n = 0.60_{n-1} +25

Hence, option B is correct.

<h3>What is the recursive rule?</h3>

A rule is defined such that its definition includes itself.

Example:

F(x) = F(x-1) + c

is one such recursive rule.

Hareem takes medicine to control his blood pressure.

he takes a 25 mg pill in the morning.

Suppose that 60% of the medicine is processed by hareem's body by the time he takes a second 25 mg pill in the evening.

So, the recursive definition for the amount of the blood pressure medicine in hareem bloodstream after n hours would be;

a_1=25, a_n = 0.60_{n-1} +25

Hence, option B is correct.
