Answer: at most 15 pairs of socks
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of pair of socks of her sister be
, and let the number of pairs Lucy has be
.
Since , Lucy has 4 more than 1/3 the number of pairs of socks as her sister, this means that
.............................. equation 1
Also , Lucy has at most 9 pairs of socks , this means that
....................................... equation 2
Equating the two equations , we have

multiply through by 3

subtract 12 from both sides

Therefore , the sister has at most 15 pairs of socks
X= 1.80/10 . x is the number of dimes. 1.80 is your total and 10 represents the worth of the dime
For the square root of a negative number, you would have to get into imaginary numbers. If you haven't learned about it yet, then the answer would be no real solutions. But if you have, here's how to solve it:
First, identify that 9 x 3 = 27. To after taking the square root, you will get 3√3 (Since the square root of 9 is 3 and there's no square root of 3, so leave it in the √)
However, since it is a negative number, you will have to include the letter i in the answer. i represents the imaginary part of it since you can't have a negative number in the square root.
So your answer will look like 3i√3.
8 x (5 x 2 + 3)= 8 x ( 15 + 3) = 8 x 13 = 104.
