X= number of dimes
x+6= number of quarters
5(x+6)= number of nickels
$5.40= 540 cents
Add the number of each coin and set it equal to the total in cents.
x + (x + 6) + 5(x + 6)= $5.40
multiply 5 by parentheses; change dollar total to cents
x + (x + 6) + (5 * x) + (5 * 6)= 540
x + (x + 6) + 5x + 30= 540
combine like terms
7x + 36= 540
subtract 36 from both sides
7x= 504
divide both sides by 7
x= 72 dimes
x + 6= 78 quarters
5(x + 6)= 390 nickels
CHECK
72 + 78 + 390= 540
540= 540
ANSWER: There are 72 dimes, 78 quarters and 390 nickels.

The actual height of building is 1800 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Height of building in model = 3 inches
Scale used by engineer;
1 inch = 600 feet
Therefore;
Actual height of building = Height in model * Scale used
Actual height of building = 3 * 600
Actual height of building = 1800 feet
The actual height of building is 1800 feet.

f(-6) = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
here, you substitute -6 for x in the function
f(x) = 3x + 9
f(-6) = 3(-6) + 9
f(-6) = -18 + 9
f(-6) = -9
I am not positive, but I believe 23. sorry in advance if I’m wrong.
