Answer:
75 quarters 25 nickels
Step-by-step explanation:
q=quarters n=nickels
q+n=100 n=100-q
0.25q +0.05(100-q)=20
From now I will multiply by 100 to avoid decimals
25q + 5(100-q)=2000
20q=1500
q=75 n=25
75*0.25= 18.75
25*0.05=1.25
18.75+1.25=20
We analyze the linear function to find that it has equation

. Drawing the line, we find that it
will intersect the circle at negative and positive x-coordinates.We can prove this by
substituting 
into the given equation:




Hence,

or

, so there are both positive and negative values for

.
The numbers given in the question are 2/5, 4/9 and 3/7. We have to take them to decimal form for arranging the numbers in increasing order.
2/5 = 0.40
4/9 = 0.44
3/7 = 0.43
Then, the increasing order of the numbers would be
2/5 < 3/7 < 4/9
I hope the answer has helped you.
Divide 3 by 8 (3/8)
Solution : 0.375
