Answer:

Claire = 30 stickers

Josh = 60 stickers

Ann = 67 stickers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Claire stickers= x

Josh = 2x

Ann= 2x + 7

Total stickers = 157

Total stickers = Claire stickers + Josh stickers + Ann stickers

157 = x + (2x) + (2x+7)

157 = x + 2x + 2x + 7

157 = 5x + 7

Subtract 7 from both sides

157 - 7 = 5x + 7 - 7

150 = 5x

Divide both sides by 5

150/5 = x

30 = x

x = 30

Claire stickers= x

=30 stickers

Josh = 2x

= 2(30)

= 60 stickers

Ann= 2x + 7

= 2(30) + 7

= 60 + 7

= 67 stickers

Claire = 30 stickers

Josh = 60 stickers

Ann = 67 stickers

Betty has 741 coins in her piggy bank, worth a total of 10,725 cents. The piggy bank only contains quarters and dimes. How many
quester [9]
Let quarters = q and
Dimes = d

We have 741 coins total so q + d = 741

Since quarters are 25 cents and Dimes are 10 cents then

25q + 10d = 10725 cents

Now we have 2 equations that we can solve using addition or substitution.

Using addition, first multiply the first equation by -10

-10 (q+d) = 741 (-10)
-10q - 10d = -7410

Now add the equations together

(-10q -10d = -7410)
+ (25q + 10d =10725)
________________
15q = 3315
q = 3315 / 15
q = 221
this is the number of quarters

Now plug this back into the original equation

q + d = 741
221 + d = 741
d = 741 - 221
d = 520

There are 520 dimes
