Answer:

Joey has 18 nickles and 27 dimes in his piggy bank.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 nickle = 5 cents

1 dime = 10 cents

$1 = 100 cents

$3.15 = 135 cents

Let

n represent the number of nickles, n>=0

d represent the number of dimes, d>=0

Joey counted a total of 45 coins that added up to $3.15:

n + d = 45

5n + 10d = 315

n = 18 nickles

d = 27 dimes

Suppose you can work at most a total of 25 hours per week. Baby-sitting, x, pays $6 per hour and working at the grocery store, y
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

<u><em>y=7  </em></u><u>number of hours at grocery store</u>

<u><em>x=18 </em></u><u>number of hours at baby- sitting</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the information provided.

x is number of hours at baby- sitting

y is number of hours at grocery store

total number of hours worked

<em>1) </em><em>x+y =25</em>

total earn in a week

<em>2) </em><em>x*$6 + y* $9 = $171</em>

<em />

<em>from equation 1</em>

x+y=25

x= 25-y

<em>we place the above derived equation in equation 2 </em>

x*$6 + y* $9 = $171

(25-y)*$6 + y* $9 = $171

(25*6) -6y +9y =171

150+3y=171

3y=171-150

3y=21

<u><em>y=7  </em></u><u>number of hours at grocery store</u>

x= 25-y

x= 25-7

<u><em>x=18 </em></u><u>number of hours at baby- sitting</u>

Show that 3650 is not a perfect square.​
KatRina [158]

A number that is a perfect square never ends in 2, 3, 7 or 8. If your number ends in any of those numbers, you can stop here because your number is not a perfect square. Obtain the digital root of the number. The digital root essentially is the sum of all of the digits.

Patrica scored 80% on a math test. She missed 4 problems. How many problems were on the test?
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Patrica got 80% correct.  She missed 4 problems, so that must have been the remaining 20% of the test.

Therefore:

4 = 20% x

Percent means out of 100, so:

4 = (20/100) x

4 = 1/5 x

x = 20

There were 20 problems on the test.
