D= # of dimes
q= # of quarters
QUANTITY EQUATION:
d + q= 64
COST EQUATION:
0.10d + 0.25q= $9.25
STEP 1:
multiply quantity equation by -0.10 to be able to eliminate the d term in step 2
(-0.10)(d + q)= (-0.10)(64)
-0.10d - 0.10q= -6.40
STEP 2:
add equation from step 1 to cost equation to eliminate the d term and solve for q
Add
0.10d + 0.25q= $9.25
-0.10d - 0.10q= -6.40
0.15q= 2.85
divide both sides by 0.15
q= 19 quarters
STEP 3:
substitute q value in step 2 into either original equation to find d value
d + q= 64
d + 19= 64
subtract 19 from both sides
d= 45 dimes
CHECK:
0.10d + 0.25q= $9.25
0.10(45) + 0.25(19)= 9.25
4.50 + 4.75= 9.25
9.25= 9.25
ANSWER: There are 45 dimes and 19 quarters.
Hope this helps! :)

Answer:
It will take 8 minutes for the temperature to reach 76°
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression for the total temperature in degrees at time t can be written as;
T=I+EM
where;
T=total temperature
I=initial temperature
E=temperature increase per minute
M=number of minutes
This can also be written as;
total temperature=initial temperature+temperature increase per minute×number of minutes
In our case;
T=76°
I=40°
E=4.5°
M=m
replacing;
76=40+(4.5×m)
4.5 m=76-40=36
(4.5 m)/4.5=36/4.5
m=8
It will take 8 minutes for the temperature to reach 76°
