Step-by-step explanation:
I did it edge yesterday
150 - 36 = 114 os remaining;
114/150 = 0,76 (as a decimal) = 76% (as a percentage);
Answer:
There are 8 dimes there.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is solved used a system of equations.
I am going to say that:
x is the number of nickels.
y is the number of dimes.
19 coins
This means that x + y = 19.
A nickel is worth $0.05. A dime is worth $0.1. The total of these coins is $1.35. So
0.05x + 0.1y = 1.35
How many dimes are there?
We have to find y.
From the first equation: x = 19 - y.
Replacing in the second:
0.05(19 - y) + 0.1y = 1.35
0.95 - 0.05y + 0.1y = 1.35
0.05y = 0.4
y = 0.4/0.05
y = 8
There are 8 dimes there.
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
-5(-x - 1) + 4x – 1= 49
Distribute
5x +5 +4x -1 = 49
Combine like terms
9x +4 = 49
Subtract 4 from each side
9x+4-4 = 49-4
9x = 45
Divide by 9
9x/9 =45/9
x = 5
Linear equations are all solved the same way. Figure out the operations performed on the variable. Undo those in reverse order.
Here, the variable is
- divided by 2
- has -7 added.
In reverse order, we undo these operations by
- adding 7
- multiplying by 2.
Whatever we do to one side of an equation, we must also do to the other side. That is how the equal sign remains valid.
2 = m/2 -7
2 +7 = m/2 -7 +7 . . . . . add 7
9 = m/2 . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
2*9 = 2*m/2 . . . . . . . . multiply by 2
18 = m . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify. (You know that 2/2 = 1, and m*1 = m.)
The answer is m = 18.

Check:
.. 2 = 18/2 -7
.. 2 = 9 -7 . . . . . . . true. The answer checks OK.
