Answer:
1503 quarters
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 4 quarters in 1 dollar, so we multiply this number by 4.
375.75 * 4 = 1503
<span>Calling the company that holds the car loan and asking them about other repayment options is the best tactic. This allows the loan holder to negotiate terms that would be acceptable to both sides, as well as showing that Angela is trying to make a good-faith effort to repay what she can. While it may increase the overall length of time that her payments require, it also shows that she is not going to outright default on the payments.</span>
x = number of 1-cent stamps
y = number of 8-cent stamps
z = number of 12-cent stamps
We have 31 stamps all together, so x+y+z = 31.
"I have 4 more 1-cent stamps than 8-cent stamps" means we have the equation x = y+8. Whatever y is, add 8 to it to get x. Solve for y to get y = x-8.
You also have "twice as many one cent stamps as 12 cent stamps", so x = 2z. Solving for z gets you z = 0.5x
-------------
x+y+z = 31
x+x-8+z = 31 ... y replaced with x-8
x+x-8+0.5x = 31 ... plug in z = 0.5x
2.5x-8 = 31
2.5x = 31+8
2.5x = 39
x = 39/2.5
x = 15.6
Your teacher made a typo somewhere because we should get a positive whole number result for x (since x is a count of how many 1-cent stamps we have).
