Bryan has quarters and nickels in his piggy bank. He has three times as many nickels as he has quarters. If the total value of t he coins is $12, find the number of nickels in the piggy bank.
1 answer:
Answer:
90
Step-by-step explanation:
Quarters , q = 25 cent
Nickel, n = 5 cent
3 times as many nickels as quarters;
n = 3q
Total value of coins = $12
n + q = $12
0.05n + 0.25q = 12
0.05(3q) + 0.25q = 12
0.15q + 0.25q = 12
0.40q = 12
q = 12 / 0.40
q = 30
n = 3q
n = 3(30)
n = 90
90 nickels

The answer is 100,000,000+3,000,000+700,000+20,000+7,000+400+90+5.
X - 6% y - 11% We need 10 liters of 8%. A) x + y = 10 B) .06x + .11y = (10 * .08) Multiplying equation A by -.06 A) -.06x + -.06y = -.6 Then adding this to B) B) .06x + .11y = (10 * .08) .05y = .2 y = 4 liters of 6% x = 6 liters of 11%
