Answer:

  • 14 coins of 5p
  • 11 coins of 20p

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

  • 5p coins = x
  • 20p coins = y
  • Total = 2.90 = 290 p
  • Number of coins = 25

<u>Equations</u>

  • x + y = 25
  • 5x + 20y = 290 ⇒ x + 4y = 58

<u>Consider the first equation in the second one</u>

  • x + y + 3y = 58
  • 25 + 3y = 58
  • 3y = 33
  • y = 11

<u>Then x is</u>

  • x = 25 - 11 = 14

<u>Answer</u>

  • 14 off 5p coins and 11 off 20p coins

Write a quadratic equation in factored form to model the given problem. Be sure to write the entire equation.
Veronika [31]
Equation :
[x(x+4)]/2=6                (as (b*h)/2=A)
x*x + 4*x -12 = 0

x = -b+- \sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac }/2a         

so, x = 2 units(as -6 is negative)
