Answer: There are 97 nickels and 108 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Number of nickels, y = Number of quarters.

As per given,

x+y = 205    ...(i)

0.05x+0.25y = 31.85 ... (ii)    [1 nickel = $0.05, 1 quarter = $ 0.25]

Multiply (ii) by 20, we get

x+5y=637   ...(iii)

Eliminate (i) from (iii)

4y = 432

⇒ y = 108 [Divide both sides by 4]

Put value of y in (i), we get

108+x=205\Rightarrow\ x= 97

Hence, there are 97 nickels and 108 quarters.

What is the midpoint of the line segment with endpoints (1,-6) and (-3,4)?
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

(-1,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x coordinate of the midpoint, add the x coordinates of the endpoint and divide by 2

(1+-3)/2 = -2/2 = -1

To find the y coordinate of the midpoint, add the y coordinates of the endpoint and divide by 2

(-6+4)/2 = -2/2 = -1

(-1,-1)
