My name is Ann [436]3 years ago

Answer:

The number is -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number

2x+8 = 7

Subtract 8 from each side

2x+8-8 = 7-8

2x = -1

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 =-1/2

x = -1/2

The number is -1/2

Answer:

2x + 8 = 7

x = -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

"a number" can be signified by a variable.

So 2 times a number would give you 2x

And 8 would mean to add 8.

Is 7 means the end result is 7.

So 2x + 8 = 7

x = -1/2

Sasha has 3.20 in U.S. coins. She has the same number of quarters and nickels. What is the greatest number of quarters she could
RSB [31]

Answer:

10 quarters = $2.50

10 nickels = $0.50

that leaves $0.20 for other coins (dimes / pennies)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, suppose she has only quarters and nickels and no other coins.  Then if C is the identical number of coins of each type, then 5C + 25C = 320, so 30C = 320 and 3C = 32, but there is no integer solution to this.  So she must have at least one other type of coin.

Assume she has only quarters, nickels, and dimes.  Then if D is the number of dimes, 5C +  25C + 10D = 320, which means 30C + 10D = 320, or 3C + D = 32.  The smallest D can be is 2, leaving 3C = 30 and thus C = 10.  So in this scenario she would have 10 quarters, 10 nickels, and two dimes to make $2.50 + $0.50 + $0.20 = $3.20.

This has to be the highest number, because if she had 11 quarters and 11 nickels, that alone would add up to 11(0.25) + 11(0.05) = $3.30, which would already be too much.
