Answer:

There are 10 quarters and 7 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks for the number of quarters and the number of dimes.

Quarters and Dimes equal 17, so let number of quarters be "q" and number of dimes be "d", so we can write:

q + d = 17

We know quarters are worth 0.25 and dimes are worth 0.10 (in dollars) and total value of the coins are 3.20 dollars, thus we can write:

0.25q + 0.10d = 3.20

Let's write the first equation as:

q = 17 - d

Now we substitute this into 2nd equation and solve for d:

0.25q + 0.10d = 3.20

0.25(17 - d) + 0.10d = 3.20

4.25-0.25d+0.10d = 3.20

-0.15d = -1.05

d = 7

Now using this value of d, we now find q:

q = 17 - d

q = 17 - 7

q = 10

There are 10 quarters and 7 dimes

4 (w+1) =-6 gsdfnvbsfgbsdfbsdfb
Harman [31]

Answer:  Hello There!!

w = -5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

4(w+1)=−6

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4(w+1)=−6

(4)(w)+(4)(1)=−6(Distribute)

4w+4=−6

Step 2: Subtract 4 from both sides.

4w+4−4=−6−4

4w=−10

Step 3: Divide both sides by 4.

4w/4 = -10/4

A book with a yellow sticker costs 50cents more than double a book wit3a red sticker
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

50b>100b

Step-by-step explanation:

the book (b) is your variable in this case (a variable is just an item and im using b because it stands for books lol)

the book costs 50 cents, so we are going to put 50 cents in front of b(the books) so like this---->  50b: this reads as "the books are 50 cents."

now, the "more than" always means this sign ">"

and here's the tricky part, since it says " double a book with a red sticker." you're going to want to multiply ( 50*2=100), and we do this because of the word "double" (double means two) this is how you would write this scenario.

now im not sure if you wanted me to solve for it, but if curious you would just have to divide. the 50 and the 100 to get an answer.
