Answer:

16 quarters

30 pennies

Step-by-step explanation:

q= quarters

p=pennies

set up a system of equations. One equation is for total value, the other is total # of coins.

q + p = 46

0.25q + 0.01p = 4.30 -> multiply this equation by 4 so you can subtract from the top equation

q + P =46

1q + 0.04p = 17.20

subtract the bottom equation from the top

0.96p = 28.8

divide by 0.96

p=30

substitute p in the top equation

q + 30 = 46

subtract 30 from both sides

q = 16

Solve the equation.<br> у+ 3 = -у +9<br> Оy = 1<br> Оy= 3<br> O y=6<br> Оy= 9
Triss [41]

Answer:

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for y:

y + 3 = 9 - y

Add y to both sides:

y + y + 3 = (y - y) + 9

y - y = 0:

y + y + 3 = 9

y + y = 2 y:

2 y + 3 = 9

Subtract 3 from both sides:

2 y + (3 - 3) = 9 - 3

3 - 3 = 0:

2 y = 9 - 3

9 - 3 = 6:

2 y = 6

Divide both sides of 2 y = 6 by 2:

(2 y)/2 = 6/2

2/2 = 1:

y = 6/2

The gcd of 6 and 2 is 2, so 6/2 = (2×3)/(2×1) = 2/2×3 = 3:

Answer:  y = 3

Annual interest is P*r^t, r is 0.05 here, t is 9/12=3/4=0.75
P*0.05^0.75=120
use your calculaor: P= 120÷ (0.05)^0.75=1135
