Answer:

34 nickels, 39 dimes, 78 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

q = quarters, d = dimes, n = nickels

n = d - 5

q = 2d

.25q + .10d + .05n = 7.55

<em>Plug in the first 2 equations into the third one</em>

.5d + .10d + .05(d - 5) = 7.55

<em>Open up the Parenthesis</em>

.5d + .10d + .5d - .25 = 7.55

<em>Combine Like Terms</em>

.2d - .25 = 7.55-->

.2d = 7.8 -->

d = 39 -->

n = 39 - 5 = 34

q = 2(39) = 78

If x/2+ 7 = 4<br> , what is the value of 5x - 7?
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

-37

Step-by-step explanation:

for the first equation to equal 4 the x must equal -6.

because something plus 7 had to equal 4. and we know that -3 + 7 equals 4. Now, -6 ÷ 2 equals -3 and that gives us the right answer.

So now plug -6 into the new problem so now it is

5 × (-6) - 7 so according the PEMDAS, we do 5 × -6 first which is -30. and -30 - 7 equals -37!!

hope this helps :)

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question

It was estimated that because of people switching to Metro trains about 33000 of CNG 3300 tons of diesel and 21000 tons of petrol was saved by the end of year 2007 (I) find a fraction of the quantity of diesel saved to the quantity of petrol saved (ii) find the quantity of cng to the quantity of diesel saved

Answer:

(I) 11/70

(II) 1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Metro trains contain 330,000 tons of CNG

3300 tons of diesel was saved

21000 tons of petrol was saved at the end of 2007

(I) The fraction of the quantity of diesel saved to the quantity of petrol saved can be calculated as follows

= 3300/21000

= 11/70

(II) The fraction of the quantity of CNG saved to the quantity of diesel can be calculated as follows

= 3300/33000

= 1/10

How do graphs and equations reveal information about a relationship between two quantities
ohaa [14]
When two quantities have a relationship, there is a corresponding equation that could describe it. These two quantities may be expressed in variables of x and y. When you plot the graph, you may see a line or a curve. This presents the trend of the relationship of the two quantities when the independent variable changes.
