Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n represent the number of nickels. Then the number of quarters is 36-n. The difference is ...
(36-n) -n = 8 . . . . . 8 more quarters than nickels
18 -n = 4 . . . . . . . divide by 2
14 = n . . . . . . . . add n-4 to both sides
There are 14 nickels in the jar.

The problem supplies more information than is needed for a solution. You can work this as a "sum and difference" problem, as we have above, or you can work it as a "mixture" problem where the total coin value comes into play. Any two of the three given relations will give a solution.
n + q = 36 . . . . . . . number of coins
5n +25q = 620 . . . value of coins (in cents)
q -n = 8 . . . . . . . . difference in number of coins
Okay so start with getting the x by itself
tan46 = x/12
multiply both sides by 12
12tan46 = x
put that into a calculator and you get:
x=12.4
5m+2(m+8)+3
5m+2m+16+3
7m+19

Answer:
60 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
You can divide the figure into 2 parts.
First, solve for the rectangle: Area of a rectangle = b*h = 4ft x 10ft = 40ft²
Then, solve for the triangle:
Height = 10ft - 5ft = 5ft
Base = 12ft - 4ft = 8ft
Area of a triangle = (b*h)/2 = (5ft x 8ft)/2 = 20ft²
Just add them together: 20ft² + 40ft² = 60ft²
