Well, given that a quarter equals 5 nickels, we can reason that, in order to get 12 coins, we would have to get 10 nickels (equals 50 cents) and 2 quarters (the other 50 cents, to make a dollar).
You didn't say whether you needed this expressed in a mathematical formula, but knowing the answer already, it shouldn't be hard to come up with one if necessary.
Hope this helps.
38 degrees
x+52=90
90-52=36
Therefore, angle 2 equals 36 degrees
A = 133; b = 31; c = 82; d = 64.
Opposite angles in an inscribed quadrilateral are supplementary; this means that d + 116 = 180. Subtracting 116 from both sides, we have d = 64.
By the same theorem, c + 98 = 180; subtracting 98 from both sides, we have c = 82.
Inscribed angles are equal to 1/2 the measure of the intercepted arc. Using this, we have
116 = 1/2(a+99)
Multiplying both sides by 2, we have
232 = a+99
Subtract 99 from both sides:
232 - 99 = a + 99 - 99
133 = a
We also have that
82 = 1/2(133+b)
Multiplying both sides by 2, we have:
164 = 133 + b
Subtract 133 from both sides:
164 - 133 = 133 + b - 133
31 = b
Answer:
the answer to the first one would be: 4/3
the second problem's answer: 20/36, which can be reduced to 5/9
