This is how you solve this problem:
.10d + .05n = 5.25
(plug in the number of dimes we have)
(21 x .1) + .05n = 5.25
(multiply number of dimes x value of the dime)
2.10 + .05n = 5.25
(subtract 2.10 from both sides)
.05n = 3.15
(divide both sides by .05 to get the number of nickels)
n = 63 nickels
Hope this helps!
Answer:
-2xl -2y + 99
Step-by-step explanation:
A: no solution!
first, simplify each side of the equation.
3x + 5 - 10x simplifies to -7x + 5.
8 - 7x - 12 simplifies to -7x - 4.
then, add +7x on both sides of the equation to get the variable alone. if you add 7x to each side, you get left with 0.
so, that leaves 5 = -4 which is not true. so, that means there is no solution.
