Answer:
um the best i can say is 25% if thats the only info you give
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of senators = x, then:-
number of representatives = 5x - 25 so
x + 5x - 25 = 515
6x = 540
x = 90
number of reps = 515 - 90 = 425
so there are 90 senators and 425 representatives.
Answer:
34 nickels, 39 dimes, 78 quarters
Step-by-step explanation:
q = quarters, d = dimes, n = nickels
n = d - 5
q = 2d
.25q + .10d + .05n = 7.55
<em>Plug in the first 2 equations into the third one</em>
.5d + .10d + .05(d - 5) = 7.55
<em>Open up the Parenthesis</em>
.5d + .10d + .5d - .25 = 7.55
<em>Combine Like Terms</em>
.2d - .25 = 7.55-->
.2d = 7.8 -->
d = 39 -->
n = 39 - 5 = 34
q = 2(39) = 78
