The equation which can be used to find the number of quarters and nickels is; n + q = 84, 0.05n + 0.25q = 17.80.
<h3>Quarters and nickels</h3>
- Total coins = 84
- Total value = $17.80
let
- Number of quarters = q
- Number of nickels = n
n + q = 84
0.05n + 0.25q = 17.80
From equation (1)
n = 84 - q
Substitute into (2)
0.05n + 0.25q = 17.80
0.05(84 - q) + 0.25q = 17.80
4.2 - 0.05q + 0.25q = 17.80
- 0.05q + 0.25q = 17.80 - 4.2
0.20q = 13.60
q = 13.60 / 0.20
q = 68
Substitute q = 68 into
n + q = 84
n + 68 = 84
n = 84 - 68
n = 16
Therefore, the number of quarters and nickels are 68 and 16 respectively.

Answer:
<em>64 ; 8</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
a² ± 2ab + b² = (a ± b)²
x² + 2(8)(x) + 8² =
x² + 16x + <em>64</em> =
(x + <em>8</em>)²
Answer:
I would say Sony's age is 33 because 4/5 of 32 is about 25 then 25+8=33
Hope I helped :)
You would set them equal to each other X= 13
