Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If we take out the extra $3, we can group the bills into one each of $5 and $1, for a value of $6. There will be 7 such groups in the remaining $42.
That means there are 7 bills of the $5 denomination, and 3 more than that (10 bills) of the $1 denomination.
There are 7 $5 bills and 10 $1 bills.
_____
If you want to write an equation, it is usually best to let a variable stand for the most-valuable contributor. Here, we can let x represent then number of $5 bills. Then the value of the cash box is ...
5x +(x+3) = 45
6x = 42 . . . . . . . . subtract 3, collect terms
x = 7 . . . . . . . . . . . there are 7 $5 bills
x+3 = 10 . . . . . . . . there are 10 $1 bills
You may notice that this working parallels the verbal description above. (After we subtract $3, x is the number of $6 groups.)
Answer:
n = -7,6
Step-by-step explanation:
n(n+1)+3=45
distributive property: a(b+c) = ab+ac
n²+n+3 = 45
n²+n -42 = 0
factor now
(n+7)(n-6) = 0
n = -7,6
Answer:
The answer is 8 because you need to add 1 1/3 eight times to get 10 2/3
