Answer:

There are 6 dimes and 9 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the number of dimes and the number of quarters by d and q.

Then d + q = 15, or q = 15 - d.

Also, ($0.25)q + ($0.10)d = $2.85, or 5q + 2d = 57.

Substituding 15 - d for q, we get 5(15 - d) + 2d = 57, or

75 - 5d + 2d = 57, or

75 - 3d = 57, or

3d = 18.  Thus, there are 6 dimes.  Since q = 15 - d, q = 15 - 6 = 9.

There are 6 dimes and 9 quarters.

Simplify:<br><br><br>4(r + 1) + 3r<br><br> A. 4r + 4<br> B. 5r + 1<br> C. 7r + 1<br> D. 7r + 4
klasskru [66]

Answer:

look in the explanation, it is in there

Step-by-step explanation:

i don't know if you are distributing or just using PEMDAS .

if you are distributing then: do in the equation 4(r + 1) + 3r.. do 4 x r and 4 x 1 , now you have 4r + 4 + 3r

                        7r +4

                      is what i got!

If you are doing PEMDAS then: first you do what is inside the perenthisis ()

4(r + 1) +3r changes into

4( r1 ) + 3r now you do multipulcation because that in the "M" in pemdas

4r + 3r, then if you are using like terms you would add them

7r

i hope this helps you out!
