I’m guessing that this is for systems of equations?
n - nickels
d - dimes
These are the equations you start off with.
n = 5d-2
0.95 = 0.10d+0.05n
Substitute the top equation for n into the variable n in the bottom equation.
0.95 = 0.10d+0.05(5d-2)
Solve for d.
0.95 = 0.10d+0.25d-0.10
1.05 = 0.35d
3 = d
Substitute d into the top equation and solve for n.
n = 5(3)-2
n = 15-3
n = 12
There are 3 dimes and 12 nickels in the coin purse! Hope this helped <3

convert your percentage into a decimal: 20% converts to 0.20
then, just multiply 0.20 with 70. you should get 14.
Answer:
whatever% of anything, is just (whatever/100) * anything.
there were a total of 560000 votes, now, off those some are valid and some are invalid.
we know 15% of that are invalid, that simply means that 85% are valid, since 85% + 15% is the whole thing, or 100%, if 15% are not good, the other 85% are the good ones.
how many are the valid ones anyway? well, 85% of 560000, which is just (85/100) * 560000.
we know that off those valid ones, the candidate got 75% of those, so how much is 75% of that?
well, (75/100) * [ (85/100) * 560000 ].

Answer:
x < -4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Solve for x</u>
-10x / -10 > 45 / -10
When dividing or multiplying by a negative, the sign flips.
x < -4.5
Answer: x < -4.5
