Answer:
x = -25
Step-by-step explanation:
25 = -7(x + 5) + 5x
25 = -7x - 25 + 5x
5x - 7x - 25 = 25
5x - 7x - 25 + 25 = 25 + 25
5x - 7x = 50
-2x = 50
-2x/-2 = 50/-2
x = -25
So, first lets define our variables:
let x = the number of dimes
let y = the number of nickels
so our first equation would be x+y = 16
Since dimes are 10 cents and nickels are 5 cents the next equation would be as follows:
.10x+.05y = 1.35
now change the first equation so y = -x+16
now substitute:
.10x+.05(-x+16) = 1.35
then multiply so you get .10x+-.05x+0.8=1.35
combine like terms and you get .05x+0.8 = 1.35
then subtract 0.8 from both sides and you get .05x = 0.55 then subtract
and you get x = 11 then substitute 11 for where x should be and you should get y = 5
So, you have 11 dimes and 5 nickels
Find three consecutive odd integral such that the sum of seven times the smallest and twice the largest is -91
5 and above give it a shove, 4 and below let it go
So if the number in the tenths spot it 5 and above you round up, if it is 4 and below you take the whole number in the original number used and that is your answer. In this case the tenth spot is 5 so you round it to 90
