Answer: 10 dimes
Solve using system of equations.
q=number of quarters and d=number of dimes
.25q+.10d=5.50 because the total of dimes and quarters is $5.50
8+d=q because there are 8 more quarters than dimes
substitute 8+d for q into the first equation to get .25(8+d)+.10d=5.50
then simplify
2+.35d=5.50
.35d=3.50
d=10 he has 10 dimes
Length is 9meters and width is 3 meters
steps:
let's assume width of a rectangle = a meters
than length of the rectangle = 3*a= 3a
perimeter = 24 meters
formula to find perimeter: p = 2(l+w)
substitute the values of in the formula
24 = 2 (3a+a)
24 = 2(4a)
24 = 8a
24/8= a
3= a
a is width of the rectangle = 3 meters
length of the rectangle = 3* a = 3*3= 9 meters
hence and is length 9 meters and width 3 meters

You just have to replace the letters with numbers, multiply first then add
