Yes I would like to get to solve the problem
That's it right there. That expression can't be simplified.
Answer: 31 nickels and 29 dimes
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Nickels (.05): x
Dimes (.10): y
Value: .05x + .10y = 4.45 → -20(.05x + .10y = 4.45) → -x - 2y = -89
Quantity: x + y = 60 → 1(x + y = 60) → <u> x + y </u> = <u> 60 </u>
-y = -29
y = 29
Next, substitute "29" for "y" into either equation and solve for "x":
x + y = 60
x + 29 = 60
x = 31
You take the difference so 1200-1068=132 and then you take the original divided by the difference so 1200/132 so it would be 9.09%
