Let us say that:
a = ones
b = fives
c = twenties
So that the total money is:
1 * a + 5 * b + 20 * c = 229
=> a + 5b + 20c = 229 -->
eqtn 1
We are also given that:
c = a – 5 -->
eqtn 2
a + b + c = 30 -->
eqtn 3
Rewriting eqtn 3 in terms of b:
b = 30 – a – c
Plugging in eqtn 2 into this:
b = 30 – a – (a – 5)
b = 35 – 2a -->
eqtn 4
Plugging in eqtn 2 and 4 into eqtn 1:
a + 5(35 – 2a) + 20(a – 5) = 229
a + 175 – 10a + 20a – 100 = 229
11a = 154
a = 14
So,
b = 35 – 2a = 7
c = a – 5 = 9
Therefore there are 14 ones, 7 fives, and 9 twenties.
Answer:
1 and 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3x4=1 and 1/3 cuz 1/3+1/3=2/3 and 2/3+2/3=4/3 and 4/3=1 and 1/3
Area =lw
=2x (8+1)
=2x (9)
=18x
therefore the area is 18x
1,000 + 50 + 40 + 0.04 + 0.0002 is the number above in expanded notation.
Hey there James!
So, just remember, 2/5 is almost half of 1.
When it is almost half of 1, this means that it would have to be 2.5/5
This would mean that 4/10 would be your answer, because it is almost half of 1 also.
Hope this helps.
