Answer:

  • 18 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of dimes be d and quarters be q

<u>The value is $8.80 = 880¢, so:</u>

  • 10d + 25q = 880 ⇒ 2d + 5q = 176

<u>If the dimes were quarters and the quarters were dimes, the coins' total value would be $7.30 or 730¢</u>

  • 25d + 10q = 730 ⇒ 5d + 2q = 146

<u>Now we have 2 equations. Solving the system by elimination, subtract 5 times the second equation from twice the first equation:</u>

  • 2(2d + 5q) - 5(5d + 2q) = 2(176) - 5(146)
  • 4d - 25d = -378
  • -21d = -378
  • d = -378/-21
  • d = 18

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer: 13%

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the simple interest is given by :-

I=Prt, where P is the principal amount, r is rate of interest () in decimal and t is the time ( in years).

Given : P = $19,100 ,  I=$9932.00  and t=  4 years

Substitute all the above values in the formula , we get

9932.00=(19100)r(4)\\\\\Rightarrow\ r=\dfrac{9932}{19100\times4}\\\\\Rightarrow r=\dfrac{13}{100}=0.13

In percent , r=0.13\times100=13\%

Hence, the rate of interest = 13%
