Number of nickels plus number of dimes equals total number of coins
so
n + d = 40
then they tell us that "there are seven times as many dimes as there are nickels"
this translates to
d = 7n
we then plug that into our first equation
and get
n + 7n = 40
then we solve for n
add like terms
8n = 40
then divide both sides by 8
n = 40/8 = 5
therefore Jimmy has 5 nickels

Well you can find the growth of desert town, by using regression. This is done by a program, like Geogebra. When I insert the data and use two variable analysis, To get a function: <span><span>y=2722.695∗<span>1.0251x

Answer:
<em>x = 9</em>
<em>y = 36</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Lines and Angles</u>
Triangle CDE is isosceles. This means the two angles of the base DE are congruent (have the same measure):
7x + 1 = 4x + 28
Subtracting 4x + 1:
3x = 27
Dividing by 3:
x = 9
Substituting in the expression for the angles:
7x + 1 = 7*9 + 1 = 64°
The angles are 64° and 64°. The other internal angle at vertex C is 180°-64°-64°=52°. This angle is congruent with its vertical angle in the triangle ABC. We are given another angle of 43°. Thus the measure of angle A is 180°-52°-43°=85°
This last angle is equal to the expression of y:
-2(3 - y) + 19 = 85
Subtracting 19:
-2(3 - y) = 66
Removing the parentheses:
-6 + 2y = 66
Adding 6:
2y = 72
Dividing by 2:
y = 36
Final answer:
x = 9
y = 36
