If we let Q be the number of quarters and N be number of nickels, this is the formula we would use:
[1] 25Q + 5N = 635 (using cents instead of dollars)
We also know something about Q and N.
[2] Q + N = 51
So multiply both sides of the second equation by 5. The reason we do this is because we're going to need to cancel out one of the variables (either Q or N) to solve for the other one. If we multiply times 5, we'll have 5N in both equations.
5Q + 5N = 255
Now we have two equations, and the second one can be subtracted from the first.
25Q + 5N = 635
-(5Q + 5N) = -255
---------------------
20Q = 380
so
Q = 19
There are 19 quarters.
And since there are 51 coins in all, 51-19 = 32 nickels.
Answer:
X = 70 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
The way to figure this out is by taking the angle of the 30 degrees and applying it to the opposite side of its self then just add it to the 80 degrees which will equal 110 and since a straight line has 180 degrees just subtract 180 by 110 and that will be the value of x because the lines are parallel and the line that goes through both lines will always have the same angle.
Answer:
20% discount
Step-by-step explanation:
300 - 240 = 60
60 / 300 = 0.20
0.20 × 100 = 20
"<em>The product of 8 and a number increased by 4 is 60" </em>can be written as:
8y + 4 = 60
Your answer is A.
