There are 62 dimes and 44 nickels.
N + D = 106 (There are 106 coins in all.)
1 nickel = 5 cents.
1 dime = 10 cents.
5*N + 10*D = 840 ($8.40 = 840 cents)
N + D = 106 -------(1)
N = (106 - D)
5*N + 10*D = 840 ---------(2)
5*(106-D) + 10*D = 840
530 - 5*D + 10*D = 840
5*D = 840 - 530
5*D = 310
D = 310/5 = 62
Eq(1) N + D = 106
N + 62 = 106
N = 106 - 62
N = 44
The answer is actually 80 degrees, I just took the test.
Hello!
If William originally won 50 tickets, redeemed 30, and gave 5 to his friend, the expression that represents how many tickets he has left is:
50-30-5
If you are looking for how many tickets William has left, you simply need to solve the expression:
50-30-5 = 15
I hope this helps you! Have a great day!
