Number of nickels plus number of dimes equals total number of coins
so
n + d = 40

then they tell us that "there are seven times as many dimes as there are nickels"
this translates to
d = 7n

we then plug that into our first equation
and get
n + 7n = 40

then we solve for n
add like terms
8n = 40

then divide both sides by 8
n = 40/8 = 5

therefore Jimmy has 5 nickels

What is the difference between a copyright and a trademark, and how are they used to protect intellectual property?
kirill [66]

Answer: Copyright protects original work, whereas a trademark protects items that distinguish or identify a particular business from another.

The trademark laws protect the product or service name and any slogans used in the advertising, while the copyright laws protect the additional creative written expression contained in the ad. Hope this helps!
