Answer:

100 silver coins and 175 bronze


Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of silver coins and y the number of bronze coins.  

Worth of these coins together = 6x/(5)+0.08/(10)y

=1.2x+0.008y

Weight of one silver coin = 125/5 = 25 gm

and one bronze coin = 500/10 = 50 gms.

Weight of these coins together = 25x + 50y

Equate these two items i.e. value and weight to actuals given.

i.e. 1.2x+0.08y = 134 and    ... i

25x+50y = 11 kg 250 gm = 11250 gms. ... ii

Divide the second equation by 25

x+2y = 450   ...  iii

Multiply I equation by 25

30x+2y =3350   ... iv

iii-iv gives -29x = -2900 or

x =100

Substitute in x+2y = 450

2y = 350 or y =175

<h3>Answer:  76/4995</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

x = 0.0152152...

10x = 0.152152...

10000x = 152.152...

Subtract the last two equations to find that

  • 10000x-10x becomes 9990x on the left side
  • 152.152... - 0.152152... becomes 152 on the right side

We're left with the equation 9990x = 152 which solves to x = 152/9990

Divide both parts of that fraction by 2 so that the fraction fully reduces to 76/4995 which is the final answer

You can use your calculator to see that 76/4995 = 0.0152152152152... which confirms the answer.

umka21 [38]

Answer:

84

Step-by-step explanation:

Pretend her first 3 quizzes were all 83 since that was the average. So the 4th was 87.

83+83+83+87 = 336

Divide by the total number of quizzes because they are equally weighted.

336/4 = 84
