Answer:
correct answer is 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
9(x+1) = 25+x
open the bracket
9x + 9 = 25+x
collect like terms
9x-x = 25-9
8x = 16
x = 2
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
You set up cross multiplication 3/4 x 9/x, you go 4x9=36 divided by 3 equals 12
Yess, such fun so
q=number of quarter
n=number of nickles
q+n=63
9.15=915 cents
25 cents=1 q
5 cents=1 n so
915=25q+5n
915=5(5q+n)
divide by 5
183=5q+n
we also have q+n=63
subtract q from both sides
n=63-q
subsitute 63-q for n in second equation
183=5q+63-q
add like terms
183=4q+63
subtract 63 from both sides
120=4q
divdie by 4
30=q
there were 30 quarters
subsitute
63=30+n
subtract 30
33=n
30 quarters
33 nicles
