3 if 5 times a number plus two is 17, then we can say 5x+2=17 if we subtract two on each side we have 5x=15, divide each side by 5 and you get x=3 so your answer is 3
Answer:
50 nickels, 20 quarters.
Step-by-step explanation:
System of equations (q = # of quarters, n = # of nickels):
<em>q + n = 70, 0.25q + 0.05n = 7.50</em>
the first equation can be changed to q = 70 - n, so we are able to <em>substitute q with 70 - n</em>.
So, it will look like <em>0.25*70 - 0.25n + 0.05n = 7.50</em>. This can be simplified to <em>0.2n = 10</em>, which means that n = 50.
Knowing that we can solve <em>q + 50 = 70</em>, which means that q = 20.
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract initial amount (300) and final (150). from there you get 150 dollars that was lost. We know that every step you 5 dollars so then divide 150 and 5 to get 30. So the distance was 30 steps.
lets assume one number is x
then 2nd number will be 5x-2
so product is 120
x (5x-2) = 120
5x^2 - 2x = 120
so answer is last option
