Answer:
17, 19, 21
Step-by-step explanation:
x = first number
x+2 = second number
x+4 = third number
4x + 3(x+2) + 2(x+4) = 167
simplify:
4x + 3x + 6 + 2x + 8 = 167
combine like terms:
9x + 14 = 167
subtract 14 from each side of the equation:
9x = 153
divide both sides by 9:
x = 17
X= number of dimes
x+6= number of quarters
5(x+6)= number of nickels
$5.40= 540 cents
Add the number of each coin and set it equal to the total in cents.
x + (x + 6) + 5(x + 6)= $5.40
multiply 5 by parentheses; change dollar total to cents
x + (x + 6) + (5 * x) + (5 * 6)= 540
x + (x + 6) + 5x + 30= 540
combine like terms
7x + 36= 540
subtract 36 from both sides
7x= 504
divide both sides by 7
x= 72 dimes
x + 6= 78 quarters
5(x + 6)= 390 nickels
CHECK
72 + 78 + 390= 540
540= 540
ANSWER: There are 72 dimes, 78 quarters and 390 nickels.
