Step 1. 5x-4(-3x+5)=-3
step 2. distribute 5x+12x-20=-3
step 3. combine like terms 17x-20=-3
step 4. add 20 17x=17
step 5. divide 17 x=1
step 6. fill x in first equation y=-3(1)+5
step 7. combine y=2
x=1 y=2

step 1. fill in for y -3x-3(-5x-17)=3
step 2. distribute -3x+15x+ 51=3
step 3. combine 12x+51=3
step 4. minus 51 12x= 48
step 5. divide by 12 x= 4
step 6. fill in x to find y y=-5(4)-17
step 7. combine y=-20-17
y=-37 x=4

Ted has $3.90. He has only dimes and quarters. He has 27 coins altogether. How many of each does he have

mestny [16]

Answer: 8 quarters 19 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

we already know 8+19=27, if 4 quarters equals a dollar then you use 4 quarters each to create 2 dollars.

then, use 10 dimes to create another dollar summing it up to $3. now all we have to do is make 90 cents, and we've already used 18 coins.

if we used another 9 dimes, that would equal 90 cents.

in conclusion, 4+4= 8

8+10= 18

18+9= 27, and having $3.90
