Answer:

19 dimes and 9 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

Model the situation using two equations, then solve the system.

let n be number of nickels and d be number of dimes.

n + d = 28     <= This equation is about the number of coins.

0.05n + 0.10d =  2.35   <=This equation is about the worth in dollars.

Rearrange n + d = 28.

n = 28 - d

Now we can substitute this equation into the other one.

Sub n =28-d at the "d" variable for the equation 0.05n + 0.10d =  2.35

0.05n + 0.10d =  2.35

Now there is only one variable.

0.05(28 - d) + 0.10d =  2.35   <=distribute this

0.05(28 - d) + 0.10d =  2.35

1.4 - 0.05d + 0.10d = 2.35   <=combine like terms

1.4 + 0.05d = 2.35    <= begin to isolate d

0.05d = 2.35 - 1.4

0.05d = 0.95

d = 0.95/0.05

d = 19

Now that we know d=19, we can substitute it into any equation.

Choose the equation n + d = 28 because the numbers are easier.

n + d = 28

n + 19 = 28    <=isolate n

n = 28 - 19

n = 9

Since n=9 and d=19, Kay has 9 nickels and 19 dimes.

What is 2/5% of 820?<br><br> 1.8<br><br> 2.05<br><br> 2.88<br><br> 3.28
Margarita [4]

Answer:

D) 3.28

Step-by-step explanation:

820/x=100/2.5

(820/x)*x=(100/2.5)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

820=40*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (40) to get x

820/40=x

20.5=x

x=20.5

now we have:

2.5% of 820=20.5

Can someone answer this please with an explanation.
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

x=92

Step-by-step explanation:

those to angles are supplementary meaning that they add up to equal 180

so you set up the equation 180=x+x-4

180=2x-4

step 1 add 4 to each side

184=2x

step 2 divide each side by 2

x=92

so the angles equal 92 and 88
