5.8 Nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x rep no of Nickels in Mike's cup

Then x - 0.2 = Number of quarters in Mike's cup

0.2x = Amount of money that mike has from the nickels

1 ( x - 0.2) = Amount of money that Mike has from the quarter

Then,

0.2x + 1 (x - 0.2) = 6

Expand the bracket

0.2x + x - 0.2x = 6

x = 6

Recall

x - 0.2 = 0

6 - 0.2 = 5.8

Therefore, Mike has 5.8 nickels for the quarter

Illusion [34]
The answer would be 2(6x+5+2y) you can figure this out through the distributive property. 2(6x)=12x 2(5)=10 and 2(2y)= 4y this would reult in giving you the equation 12x+10+4y

A company sells boxes of duck calls (d) for $35 and boxes of turkey calls (t) for $45. they make batches of duck calls that fill
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Option A is the correct choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d be the number of boxes of duck calls and t be the number of boxes of turkey calls.

We have been given that a company sells boxes of duck calls for $35 and boxes of turkey calls (t) for $45, so the revenue earned from selling d boxes of duck and t boxes of turkey call will be 35d and 45t respectively.

Further, the company plan to make $300. We can represent this information as:

35d+45t=300...(1)

We are also told that they make batches of duck calls that fill 6 boxes and batches of turkey calls that fill 8 boxes. the company only has 42 boxes. We can represent this information as:

6d+8t=42...(2)

6d=42-8t...(2)

Therefore, our desired system of equation will be:

35d+45t=300...(1)

6d=42-8t...(2)
