For quarters we have:

Where,
x: number of quarters
Clearing x we have:

For nickels we have:

Where,
y: number of nickels
Clearing y we have:

Then, the ratio of quarters to nickels is:

Simplifying we have:

Answer:
The ratio of quarters to nickels in a dollar is:

Answer:
a ) y = 1 and x = -1
d) y = 5 and x = -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
<h2><u>
Substitution method</u></h2><h2><u>Question a</u></h2>
y = x+ 2
y = 2x + 3
<em>we can make the first formula in terms of x , so we can place in into the second formula</em>
y = x + 2
x = y - 2
now put y - 2 where x is in the second equation
y = 2x + 3
y = 2(y - 2) + 3
y = 2y - 4 +3
now solve
4 - 3 = 2y -y
y = 1
since y = 1 we can find what x is by putting into the first formula
y = x +2
x = y - 2
x = (1) -2
x = -1
<h3><u>hence y = 1 and x = -1 </u></h3><h3><u /></h3><h2><u>Question d</u></h2>
y = 2x + 6
y = 4 - 2x
<em>we can make the first formula in terms of x , so we can place in into the second formula</em>
y = 2x + 6
y - 6 = 2x
x = (y-6)/ 2
now place (y-6)/2 where x is in the second formula
y = 4 -2x
y = 4 - 2 (
)
now solve
the multiplication by 2 and division by 2 are cancelled out
hence making the simplified equation as:
y = 4 - y + 6
2y = 4 + 6
2y = 10
y = 5
now place this into the first equation
y = 2x + 6
y - 6 = 2x
x = (y-6)/ 2
x = (5-6)/2
x = -1/2
<h3><u>
hence y = 5 and x = -1/2</u></h3>

To answer this question you must use Pythagorean theorem

a and b are the legs (the sides that form a perpendicular/right angle)
c is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle)
In this case...
a = x
b = 4
c = 20
^^^Plug these numbers into the theorem

solve for x
+ 16 = 400
= 384
x = 8√6
or
x ≈ 19.5959....

5 consecutive numbers that add up to 120 are:
22, 23, 24, 25, 26
As you can see the third term is 24.
The answer is 24
Hope it helps :)
