Can you please and comma's? Without commas everything is confusing.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Switch sides.

Step 2. Since the fraction 1/2 multiplies b, multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 1/2 which is 2.


Step 3. Since h is multiplying b, and you want b alone, divide both sides by h.

Answer:

We want to solve

Subtract 2/(2x+1) from each side.

Add 1/4 to each side, and simplify the left side.

Cross multiply.
4(x - 2) = 1(2x + 1)
4x - 8 = 2x + 1
Simplify and solve for x.
4x - 2x = 1 + 8
2x = 9
x = 9/2 or x = 4 1/2.
Answer:
So Maurice would have 2N nickels
Total number of coins is N + 2N + 9 = 3N + 9
Each nickel is 5 pennies
3N of nickels = 15N pennies
-----------
Their worth is 84 cents
15N + 9 = 84
15N = 75
N = 75/15 = 5
N = 5
This means Nina has 5 nickels.
