Fun

n=number of nickles
q=number of quarters
d=number of dimes


4 more dmes than nickles, 3 more quarters than dimes
d+4=n
q=3+d

total value is 455 cents
10d+5n+25q=455
divide both sides by 5 to simplify
2d+n+5q=91

now we convert all to one coin
q=3+d and n+4=d
subsitute 3+d for q and n+4 for d

2(n+4)+n+5(3+d)=91
2(n+4)+n+5(3+n+4)=91
2(n+4)+n+5(n+7)=91
2n+8+n+5n+35=91
8n+43=91
minus 43 both sides
8n=48
divide both sides by 8
n=6

sub back
n+4=d
6+4=d
10=d

q=3+d
q=3+10
q=13


6 nickles
10 dimes
13 quarters

Answer:

For equation 21-b=11 given in the statement

the answer is b=10

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the equation: 21-b=11

If we sum '-21' to both sides of equation, we have

21-b-21=11-21, which leaves us to: -b=-10

Now lets multiply the equation from above by '-1', we obtain that b=10
