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.

In triangle ABC, angle A is 75o and angle B is 20o. Select the triangle that is similar to triangle ABC.
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

A. \triangleDEF where \angle D = 75^{\circ} and \angle E = 20^{\circ}.

Step-by-step explanation:

At first we must keep in mind that two triangles are similar when they have same angle configuration, that is, each pair of angles is congruent. If \triangleABC and \triangleDEF, then \angle A \equiv \angle D and \angle B \equiv \angle E. Hence, \angle D = 75^{\circ} and \angle E = 20^{\circ}.

In a nutshell, correct answer is A.
