<em>If the number you are rounding is followed by 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9, round the number up (+1).</em>
<em>If the number you are rounding is followed by 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4, round the number down (no change).</em>
81.1<u>3</u>9 ≈ <u>81.1</u>
D= # of dimes
q= # of quarters
QUANTITY EQUATION:
d + q= 64
COST EQUATION:
0.10d + 0.25q= $9.25
STEP 1:
multiply quantity equation by -0.10 to be able to eliminate the d term in step 2
(-0.10)(d + q)= (-0.10)(64)
-0.10d - 0.10q= -6.40
STEP 2:
add equation from step 1 to cost equation to eliminate the d term and solve for q
Add
0.10d + 0.25q= $9.25
-0.10d - 0.10q= -6.40
0.15q= 2.85
divide both sides by 0.15
q= 19 quarters
STEP 3:
substitute q value in step 2 into either original equation to find d value
d + q= 64
d + 19= 64
subtract 19 from both sides
d= 45 dimes
CHECK:
0.10d + 0.25q= $9.25
0.10(45) + 0.25(19)= 9.25
4.50 + 4.75= 9.25
9.25= 9.25
ANSWER: There are 45 dimes and 19 quarters.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:126
Step-by-step explanation: your welcome
It's a rational number because 25 is perfect square, taking the square root gives the rational integers +5 or -5
