Answer:

30 Nickels and 188 Pennies

Step-by-step explanation:

okay, so to set up the equation first, we have to assign each coin a variable, let's call them p and n:

P= number of pennies

N= number of nickels

the value of a penny is 1 cent, so 1P, and the value of a nickel is 5 cents, so 5N

The problem states that he has 218 coins, meaning that the total number of pennies and nickels adds up to 218:

P + N = 218

the total value of the coins is $3.38, so that would mean that 1P + 5N has to equal $3.38:

1P + 5N = 338

Okay, so now that we have our equations let's solve them using elimination:

we have to get a common coefficient between both equations, so let's multiply our first equation by 5:

P x 5 = 5P

N x 5 = 5N

218 x 5 = 1090

so, now we can solve by elimination:

5P + 5N = 1090

1P + 5N = 338

the N's cancel out:

4P = 752

divide both sides by 4:

P = 188

okay, so if theres a total of 218 coins, subtract 188 from 218:

218 - 188 = 30

so, there are 30 nickels and 188 pennies.

check our work:

5 x 30 = 150

1 × 188 = 188

150 + 188 = 338

338 = 338

I hope this helps! :)

Urgent ASAP!! Imagine math
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Graph A = 20miles/gallon

Graph B = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

For graph A, to find the change you will need to choose two points from the graph (the easier the better)

So for example, I've chosen 40miles-2gallons (2, 40) and point 0 (0, 0)

Now you will need to remember the slope formula which is:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_1-x_2}

so your point (x1, y1) will be (0, 0)

and point (x2, y2) will be (2, 40)

so m=\frac{40-0}{2-0}

which is m=\frac {40}{2} = 20

and so you get that the slope will be 20 miles/gallon

For graph B, what they want you to see is that change of y/change of x means the same as change of miles/change of gallons since x is the gallons and y is the miles.
