Let d = # of dimes
Let q = # of quarters
45 = d + q
.1d + .25q = 8.40
Then we can use the substitution method and make it so that d = 45 - q.
Then plug in the value for d into the second equation.
.1(45-q)+.25(q)=8.40
4.5-.1q+.25q=8.40
4.5+.15q = 8.40
.15q = 3.90
q = 26
d = 45 - 26 = 19
26 quarters
19 dimes

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d = # of dimes

Let q = # of quarters

45 = d + q

.1d + .25q = 8.40

Then we can use the substitution method and make it so that d = 45 - q.

Then plug in the value for d into the second equation.

.1(45-q)+.25(q)=8.40

4.5-.1q+.25q=8.40

4.5+.15q = 8.40

.15q = 3.90

q = 26

d = 45 - 26 = 19

26 quarters

19 dimes

A mother is 1 3/4 times as tall as her son. Her son is 3 feet tall. How tall is the mother?
Kobotan [32]
In order to find the answer to this question, you need to multiply the fractions. But before we do that, we need to turn the mixed fraction into a proper fraction. 1 3/4 would turn into 7/4 because you multiply the denominator by the whole number and add the numerator. So we come out with:

7/4 x 3/1 = 21/4

Can we simplify 21/4? No, we can't. However, we need to turn it back into a mixed fraction. We can do that by actually dividing the numbers. 21 divided by 4 is 5 with a remainder of 1, so we come out with our answer.

The mom is 5 1/4 feet tall :) Hope this helps!
