So, you have to have your equation in terms of dimes. What you said about what he has: four more nickels than dimes in his pocket. Will help with our equation.
We know what a nickel and dime is worth. A nickel is .05 and a dime is .1
We don't know how many dimes are in his pocket, since we're trying to solve it.
.1x+(4+x).05=1.25;
In the parenthesis, it shows how there are four more nickels. Let's solve it now.
.1x + (4+x).05=1.25
.1x + .2+ .05x = 1.25; Let's add like terms.
.15x + .2 = 1.25; Subtract .2 from both sides.
.15x= 1.05
1.05÷.15= 7 =x
There are 7 dimes in his pocket, let's check our answer.
We now know there are 11 nickels, since there are four more nickels than dimes.
11(.05) +.1(7) = 1.25
.55+ .7 = 1.25
Now that we've tried it, we know there are 7 dimes in his pocket.

Step One
Develop a formula for the perimeter.
Argument
What you see is a semicircle going upwards and another one going downwards. Two semicircles =1 circle.
The "perimeter" [Circumfrence] of a whole circle = 2*pi*r
We are told that whatever you call this the perimeter is 8pi + 16
Step Two
Set up the equation
8pi + 16 = 2*pi*r + 4r Including the line connecting these two.
Step Three
Take out the common factors on the left and right.
8(pi + 2) = 2r(pi + 2) Divide both sides by pi + 2
8 = 2r Divide by 2
4 = r
Sorry. I didn't know the meaning of perimeter. Mathmate is perfectly correct.
It would be -12.75 because it is the opposite of 12.75
Answer:
The length is 2.5 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Before we find the value of the length of the side, we need the measure of the coordinates after dilation
B’ = 1/2 B = 1/2(3,2) = (1.5, 1)
C’ = 1/2 C = 1/2( 0,-2) = (0,-1)
The measure of the length is the distance between the two points
Mathematically, that would be;
D = √(x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2
D = √(0-1.5)^2 + (-1-1)^2
D = √(2.25 + 4)
D = √6.25
D = 2.5 units
