20 quarters and 15 nickels.
20 x 0.25 = 5
15 x 0.05 = 0.75
5 + 0.75 = $5.75
Hope this helps.
Ratio x coordinates = 20/10
ratio y coordinates = 10/5
here’s a picture incase :)
[a] x = 175 - 7.5p
For a, we are isolating the x variable to one side of the equation.
0.4x + 3p = 70
0.4x = - 3p + 70
x = - 7.5p + 175
[b] x = 115
For b, we are solving for x when p = 8.
x = - 7.5p + 175
x = - 7.5(8) + 175
x = 115
Let x be the number of red fish
3:5 = x:20
3/5 = x/20
(Cross method)
5x = 60
x =12
There are 12 red fish in the fish tank.
