Answer:
Joey has 18 nickles and 27 dimes in his piggy bank.
Step-by-step explanation:
1 nickle = 5 cents
1 dime = 10 cents
$1 = 100 cents
$3.15 = 135 cents
Let
n represent the number of nickles, n>=0
d represent the number of dimes, d>=0
Joey counted a total of 45 coins that added up to $3.15:
n + d = 45
5n + 10d = 315
n = 18 nickles
d = 27 dimes
The answer is 20/72 or 5/18
10 chickens lay 2 eggs each. But 2 chickens lay 3 eggs each
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y=3(x-3)(x-4)
=3(x²-4x-3x+12)
or y=3(x²-7x+12)
or y=3x²-21x+36
A
The first equation has slope 6 and y intercept -4. I'd plot y intercept (0,-4) and (1,2), and connect the dots and extend for the first line.
The second equation has slope 5 and y intercept -3. I'd plot y intercept (0,-3) and (1,2), and connect the dots and extend for the second line.
We stumbled on the solution, both lines contain (1,2)
B
I don't like the graphing. This is algebra, not connect the dots.
We have two equations for y, we equate them to find the x where they meet.
6x - 4 = 5x - 3
6x - 5x = -3 + 4
x = 1
y = 6(1) - 4 = 2
Check: y = 5(1) - 3 = 2, good
Answer: (1, 2)
