Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
36/9 =4
When you see an x put 9 ;)
Using a system of equations, it is found that there are 5 dimes and 9 quarters in his pocket.
<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>
A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.
In this problem, the variables are given as follows:
- Variable x: number of dimes in his pocket.
- Variable y: number of quarters in his pocket.
He has a total of 14 coins, hence:
x + y = 14 -> y = 14 - x.
They are worth $2.75, hence, considering the value of each coin(dimes $0.1 and quarters $0.25), we have that:
0.1x + 0.25y = 2.75
Since y = 14 - x:
0.1x + 0.25(14 - x) = 2.75
x = (0.25*14 - 2.75)/0.15.
x = 5.
y = 14 - x = 14 - 5 = 9.
There are 5 dimes and 9 quarters in his pocket.

Hi! This is the solution of your equation!
Use the general form:-
(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2 where (a, b) is the centre and r = radius
Here the radius = 1/2 * 6 = 3 so r^2 = 9 and we have the equation:-
(x + 4)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 9 (answer)
Answer:
40/100=2/5
