3(4x - 4) - 7x, when simplified, is 5x - 12. So your answer would be A, or the first one.
Let x be the number of pennies which is also equal to the number of dimes. By this representation, the number of quarters is equal 46 - 2x. The total amount is $4.87 or 487 cents. The equation that best represent the given is,
x + 10x + 25(46 - 2x) = 487
The value of x from the equation is 17. Therefore, there are 17 of both pennies and dimes and 12 quarters.
Answer:
The elevator stops on the 19th floor.
Step-by-step explanation:
On the 16th floor, goes up 12 floors:
16 + 12 = 28
On the 28th floor, goes down 7 floors:
28 - 7 = 21
On the 21st floor, does up 3 floors:
21 + 3 = 24
On the 24th floor, goes down 5 floors:
24 - 5 = 19
