Answer:
3 nickels and 5 quarters
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n = number of nickels
q = number of quarters
q = n+2
.25q + .05n = 1.40
Using the first equation and replacing q in the second equation
.25( n+2) + .05n = 1.40
Distribute
.25n+.50 +.05n = 1.40
Combine like terms
.30n +.5 = 1.40
Subtract .5 from each side
.3n +.5-.5 = 1.40-.4
.3n = .9
Divide by .3
.3n/.3 = .9/.3
n = 3
q = n+2
q=5

Hi there!
Lets dive into the problem, starting with the equation for volume; length x width x height.
If it's 8 x 12 inches, That means the height is 8 and the length is 12. The side, or width, would be x.
The equation should be 8 times 12 times x, or (8)(12)(x).
Multiply -12 to each of the terms (make sure to carry the negative!)
-36a - 24b + 12 will be your final answer :)
