Answer:
As we know:
A nickle is worth 5 cents.
A dime is worth 10 cents.
A quarter is worth 25 cents.
Here is what Robert had:
Number of nickles (a)
Number of dimes (b)
Number of quarters (c)
Here is assumption:
5a + 10b + 25c = 850
a = 3b
c = b + 10
=> 5(3b) + 10b + 25(b + 10) = 850
=> 50b + 250 = 850
=> 50b = 600
=> b = 600/50 = 12
=> a = 3b = 3 x 12 = 36
=> c = b + 10 = 12 + 10 = 22
=> Number of nickles: 36
=> Number of dimes: 12
=> Number of quarters: 22
Hope this helps!

If an equation is in absolute value symbols, the answer is always positive. So this equation has no real solution.
Answer:
12 mph and 16 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
distance = speed * time
56 = s * 2 + (s - 4) * 2
56 = 2s + 2s - 8
56 = 4s - 8
64 = 4s
16 = s
s = 16
s - 4 = 12
Answer:
0.24930286...
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
in such a case the easiest approach might be using the point-slope form of a line equation :
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
with m being the slope, and (x1, y1) being a point on the line.
so, in our case that would be
y - 8 = 8(x - 4)
simplified this would be
y - 8 = 8x - 32
y = 8x - 24
FYI - this would be then the slope-intercept form (-24 would be the intercept point on the y-axis).
