Answer:
The number of <u>dimes are 100</u> and number of <u>quarters are 140.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of dimes be 'd' and quarters be 'q'.
Given:
The sum of amount is $45.
The total number of coins are 240.
1 dime = $0.10
∴ 'd' dimes =
1 quarter = $0.25
∴ 'q' quarters =
Now, as per question:
Multiplying equation (1) by -0.1 and adding the result to equation (2), we get:
Therefore, the number of dimes are 100 and number of quarters are 140.
For this case we have to:
x: Let the variable representing the number of people to travel in the group
y: Let the variable representing the number of miles traveled.
If friends only have $22 then we have the following inequality:
Now, if there are three people in the group we have that
The taxi can travel a maximum of 19.33 miles.
On the other hand, if the group wants to travel 10 miles then we have to y = 10.
Thus, they could travel a maximum of 5 people.
ANswer:
Traveling 3 people, the taxi can travel a maximum of 19.33 miles
Traveling 10 miles, a maximum of 5 people can travel
