For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables:
x: number of quarters
y: number of nickels
We now write the system of equations:
x + y = 68
0.25x + 0.05y = 13.40
Solving the system we have:
x = 50
y = 18
Answer:
they have:
quarters = 50
nickels = 18
To find w, you subtract 117 from 180. After that you get w = 63. Now you add 63 and 31 to get 94. You then subtract 94 from 180 to get x = 86. Now you add 86 and 56 to get 142. You then subtract 142 from 180 to get y = 38. Now you add 38 and 117 to get 155. Again you subtract 155 from 180 to get z = 25
Y = -4/3x -1/2 , perpendicular slopes are opposite reciprocals
Answer:
The number of trucks and sedans can be
(0 trucks ,26 sedans)
(8 trucks ,21 sedans)
(24 trucks ,11 sedans)
(25 trucks ,1 sedans)
(32 trucks ,6 sedans)
(16 trucks ,16 sedans)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The cost for trucks =$5
The cost for sedans =$8
The total amount collected = $208
To Find:
Number of trucks and sedans passed through the toll booth =?
Solution:
Let the number of trucks be x and the number of sedans be y
Then
5x + 8y = 208-------------------------------(1)
By Trail and error method
5(0) + 8(26) = 208
5(8) + 8(21) = 208
5(24) +8(11) =208
5(25) + 8(1) = 208
5(32) + 8(6) =208
5(16) + 8(16) = 208
Pour 4 times of 124-gallon into a big jug.
Amount of water = 124 x 4 = 496 gallons
Then use the 45-gallon jug to scoop out the water 11 times.
Amount of water scooped out = 11 x 45 = 455 gallons
Water remaining = 496 - 450 = 1 gallon.
