Answer:

  9 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

Changing a quarter to a nickel decreases the value of the sum by $0.20.

When all quarters are changed to nickels and vice versa, the total value will change by the number of excess quarters. That number is ...

  ($5.95 -3.35)/(0.20) = 2.60/0.20 = 13

The remaining change is made up of equal numbers of nickels and quarters. That amount of change is ...

  $5.95 -13·0.25 = 2.70

A quarter and nickel together total $0.30, so there must be $2.70/$0.30 = 9 such pairs of coins.

There are 9 nickels and 22 quarters.

_____

If you don't want to reason through the problem, you can write equations. Let n and q represent the numbers of nickels and quarters, respectively. Then you have ...

  0.05n + 0.25q = 5.95

  0.25n + 0.05q = 3.35

Multiplying the second equation by 5 and subtracting the first gives ...

  5(0.25n +0.05q) -(0.05n +0.25q) = 5(3.35) -(5.95)

  1.20n = 10.80

  10.80/1.20 = n = 9

The number of nickels is 9.

How do you find the surface area for this shape?
fgiga [73]

Answer:

  • total area is the total of the areas of each of the rectangular surfaces
  • 67 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

Add up the surface areas of each of the 6 faces.

There are two top/bottom faces with the same area, two left/right faces with the same area, and two front/back faces with the same area. So you only need to figure the areas for 3 faces, then multiply that sum by 2. Of course the area of each rectangle is the product of its length and width. For length, width, and height dimensions L, W, and H, the total area is ...

A = 2(LW +WH +LH)

  = 2(LW +H(L+W)) . . . . . I like this form because there's one less multiplication

  = 2(5·4 + 1.5(5+4)) = 2(20 +13.5)

A = 67 . . . units²

_____

<em>Comment on dimensions</em>

It does not matter which number you use for length, width, or height. The problem is symmetrical that way, so any of the dimensions can be called any of those things. You need to use the same number consistently for height (for example) once you have made the choice of which is which.
