2:15 -40 2:16 -40 2:17 -40 2:18 -40 THE ANSWER IS -40
Our answer is

Our greatest common factor, or GCF, is

, so when we factor is out, our divide each term by

, we get our answer. To check this, we can multiply the

back across the parenthesis and see if we get the same result as our initial question.
Hope this helped! :))
Yess, such fun so
q=number of quarter
n=number of nickles
q+n=63
9.15=915 cents
25 cents=1 q
5 cents=1 n so
915=25q+5n
915=5(5q+n)
divide by 5
183=5q+n
we also have q+n=63
subtract q from both sides
n=63-q
subsitute 63-q for n in second equation
183=5q+63-q
add like terms
183=4q+63
subtract 63 from both sides
120=4q
divdie by 4
30=q
there were 30 quarters
subsitute
63=30+n
subtract 30
33=n
30 quarters
33 nicles
25.20/420= .06. 6% sales tax
