Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

If n is number of nickles and d is number of dimes:

5n + 10d = 440

n = 3.5d

Substitute:

5(3.5)d + 10d = 440

17.5d + 10d = 440

27.5d = 440

d = 16

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

6.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total = 1 ; as a decimal

1/2 = skittles

1/4 = M&Ms

Skittles +M&Ms = 1/2 + 1/4 = 3/4

Remainder = 1 - $\frac{3}{4}$

Remainder = $\frac{1}{4}$

Sour patch = $\frac{1}{4} *\frac{1}{4} =\frac{1}{16}$

As a percentage , multiply 1/16 by 100 and it becomes 6.25%

(x – 3)(4x + 2) using the distributive property. Select the answer choice showing the correct distribution

Nataly [62]

The distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac

(x - 3)(4x + 2) = (x)(4x + 2) + (-3)(4x + 2)

= (x)(4x) + (x)(2) + (-3)(4x) + (-3)(2) = 4x² + 2x - 12x - 6

<h3>= 4x² - 10x - 6</h3>
