Answer:
x > 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
2c+5t=43
c=(43-5t)/2
8c+3t=36 and using c found above in this equation gives you:
4(43-5t)+3t=36
172-20t+3t=36
-17t=-136
t=8, and since c=(43-5t)/2
c=1.5
So a table costs $8.00 to rent and a chair costs $1.50
Hello, we know there are 12 inches in one foot, so in 12 feet, there are 144 inches.
Answer:
17 nickles !
Step-by-step explanation:
First, identify the variables:
n = amount of nickels
d = amount of dimes
Next, setup the equations based on what you know. The first equation is:
n + d = 28
For the second equation, we know that a dime is worth 10¢ and a nickel is 5¢, so it should be:
0.05n + 0.10d = 1.95
This a three-step answer:
In one formula (you can use any of them; most people use the simplest one), single out the variable on one side
Apply the first formula into the second formula, and solve it to get the value of one variable
Apply the answer from the second formula into the first formula, and solve it to get the value of the other variable
======
Step One:
n + d = 28
n + d - d = 28 - d
n = 28 - d
Step Two:
0.05n + 0.10d = 1.95
(0.05 * (28 - d)) + 0.10d = 1.95
1.40 - 0.05d + 0.10d = 1.95
1.40 + 0.05d = 1.95
1.40 - 1.40 + 0.05d = 1.95 - 1.40
0.05d = 0.55
d = 11
Step Three:
n = 28 - d
n = 28 - 11
n = 17
======
Your answer should be 17 nickels and 11 dimes.
You can double check by applying the variables into both formulas.
n + d = 28
17 + 11 = 28
28 = 28
0.05n + 0.10d = 1.95
(0.05 * 17) + (0.10 * 11) = 1.95
0.85 + 1.10 = 1.95
1.95 = 1.95
I hope this helped.
