Answer:

let x = the number of nickels

 

the number of pennies can be represented by (56 - x)

 

.05x + .01(56 - x) = 1.52

 

5x + (56 - x) = 152    if in the above line we multiply both sides of the equation by 100

 

4x + 56 = 152

 

4x = 96

 

x = 24

 

There are 24 nickels and 56 - 24 = 32 pennies

 

24 nickels are worth 24 * 5 = $1.20 and 32 pennies are obviously worth 32 cents, so the total is 1.20 + 0.32 = $1.52

bija089 [108]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello

A1 = (B + b) x h / 2

A1 = (8 + 2) x 5 / 2

A1 = 10 x 5 / 2

A1 = 25 cm^2

A2 = L x l

A2 = 6 x 8

A2 = 48 cm^2

A = A1 + A2

A = 25 + 48

A = 73 cm^2
