Answer: 14 nickels and 18 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

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

As per given , we have

x+ y= 32            (i)

0.05x+0.25y= 5.20              (ii)

Multiply (ii) by 4 , we get

0.2x+y = 20.8          (iii)

Subtract (iii) from (i) , we get

0.8x = 11.2

\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{11.2}{0.8}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x = 14

Put value of x in (i) , we get

y =32-14 = 18

Hence, we have 14 nickels and 18 quarters.

Answer:

see below!!

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 3y = 5,

y = –x + 3

Substitute the point into each equation and verify that it is true

x + 3y = 5,  2 +3(1) = 5   5 = 5  true

y = -x +3    1 = -2+3     1=1  true

(2,1) is a solution

If q, s, and t are all different numbers, is q &lt; s &lt; t ?
inessss [21]
It very well could be, but not necessarily. What if q = 10, s = 8, and t = 6?

The statement is that q is less than s, and s is less than t (which therefore also means q is less than t).

However, when we substitute (replace) all the letters with the values we assigned them, we can find that the expression becomes:

10 < 8 < 6

This clearly isn’t right, as 10 is the greatest number there, and 8 is definitely less than 10 and greater than 6.

(4,10) because there are 2 points with an x value of 9, 2 points with a y value of 5, and there should be 2 with an x value of 4, and 2 with a y value of 10.
