Suppose you have 20 coins that total $3.00. Some coins are nickels and some are quarters. Which of the following pairs of equati

ons would you use to find out how many of each coin you have?
A. n + q = 30
5n + 25q = 20
B. n + q = 30
n + q = 3.00
C. n + q = 3.0020
0.05n + 0.25q = 3.00

Answer: D. n + q = 20

5n + 25q = 300

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent the number of nickels that you have.

Let q represent the number of quarters that you have.

Suppose you have 20 coins. It means that

n + q = 20

The total value of the coins is $3. The value of a quarter is $0.25 and the value if a nickel is $0.05. Therefore, the equation would be

0.05n + 0.25q = 3

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 100, it becomes

5n + 25q = 300

The correct option is

D. n + q = 20

5n + 25q = 300

Answer:

below

Step-by-step explanation:

I would guess that they added 42 and 45 and then added 1 for their mistake. That might be a bit of stretch, but that is what I think

What inequality represents the sentence? The product of a number and 12 is no more than 15.
bulgar [2K]
So when this sign < has a line under the greater sign so this mean greater or equal 

same with this 

12>= x so this mean 12 greater or equal x but than there is a line under the greater sign so this mean equalitie sure too 

hope this will help you

What is the value of x?
Nikolay [14]
Answer: 7 centimeters 

Explanation:

Let triangle ABC and triangle CDE form a bow tie such that 
     - triangle ABC is smaller than triangle CDE
     - Segment AC and segment CD are the north sides
     - Segment BC and segment CE are the bottom sides
     - AC = 6, CD = 42, CE = 36, BC = x

Since angle ACB and angle ECD are formed by intersecting segment AE and segment BD at point C, they are vertical angles. (See the attached picture) So, angle ACB and angle ECD are congruent. 

Moreover when we form our bowtie, point A is in the north side and point E is in the bottom sides and this implies that angle BAC and angle CED are alternate interior angles as shown in the attached figure. 

Since it is given in the problem that alternating interior angle are congruent, angle BAC and angle CED are congruent. 

Now, we have the following pairs of angles in triangle ABC and triangle CDE that are congruent:

- angle BAC and angle CED
- angle ACB and angle ECD

By AA Similarity theorem, when we have two pairs of congruent angles for two triangles, then the two triangles are similar. So, triangle ABC and triangle CDE are similar.

In similar triangles, the sides that are opposite to the congruent angles are proportional to each other. So, 

\frac{BC}{CD}  =  \frac{AC}{CE} &#10;&#10;&#10;    (1)

Since AC = 6, CD = 42, CE = 36, BC = x, we can substitute these values to equation (1). So, equation (1) becomes

\frac{x}{42} = \frac{6}{36}
\frac{x}{42} = \frac{1}{6}  (2)

SInce we are solving for x, we can multiply both sides of equation (2) by the denominator at the left side which is 42 so that

x = 42(1/6)
x = 7 centimeters
