Answer:

<u>Part A: </u>

<u>n = 5q (1st equation)</u>

<u>0.05n + 0.25q = 2 (2nd equation)</u>

<u>Part B:</u>

<u>q = 4 ⇒ n = 5 * 4 = 20</u>

<u>Part C:</u>

<u>Margie has 20 nickels and 4 quarters, for a total of $ 2.00</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's recall that a nickel has a value of $ 0.05 and a quarter a value of $ 0.25.

Let n represent the number of nickels and q represent the number of quarters.

Part A:

Write a system of equations to represent the situation.

n = 5q (1st equation)

n * 0.05 + q * 0.25 = 2

0.05n + 0.25q = 2 (2nd equation)

Part B:

Replacing n in the 2nd equation to solve for q:

0.05n + 0.25q = 2

0.05 * 5q + 0.25q = 2

0.25q + 0.25q = 2

0.5q = 2

q = 2/0.5

<u>q = 4 ⇒ n = 5 * 4 = 20</u>

<u>Part C:</u>

<u>Margie has 20 nickels and 4 quarters, for a total of $ 2.00</u>

Solve the system of equations.<br><br><br> −5x+2y=9<br> y=7x<br> ​
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

x=1  y=7

Step-by-step explanation:

−5x+2y=9

y=7x

Substitute the second equation into the first

-5x +2(7x) = 9

Distribute

-5x +14x = 9

Combine like terms

9x=9

Divide by 9

9x/9 =9/9

x= 1

Now find y

y = 7(1)

y = 7

Solve for x and y.
Rus_ich [418]

y is 8\sqrt{3}. This is because in a 30-60-90 triangle, the side facing the 30° is always half of the side facing the 90°


x is always √3 times y, so x=24. Therefore, the answer is the second answer choice.
