Let n = number of nickels, and p = number of pennies.
The number of coins is 25, so we get this equation.
n + p = 25
The value of the coins is 0.05 per nickel, and 0.01 per penny.
0.05n + 0.01p = 0.73
Now you have a system of equations.
n + p = 25
0.05n + 0.01p = 0.73
Solve the first equation for n:
n = 25 - p
Now substitute into the second equation.
0.05(25 - p) + 0.01p = 0.73
1.25 - 0.05p + 0.01p = 0.73
-0.04p = -0.52
p = 13
There were 13 pennies.
Now we substitute 13 for p in n + p = 25 to find out the number of nickels.
n + 13 = 25
n = 12
There are 13 pennies and 12 nickels.
Check: 13 pennies and 12 nickels does total 25 coins.
13 * 0.01 + 12 * 0.05 = 0.13 + 0.60 = 0.73
The value is $0.73.
Our answer is correct.
Change in level is given by :
C = increase in level - decrease in level.
Now,
Decrease in level in March is 2 1/4 = 9/4 inches.
Increase in level in April is 1 5/8 = 13/8 inches.
Putting value of these in above equation, we get :
C = 13/8 - 9/4
C = 13/8 - 18/8
C = -5/8 inches
Therefore, the overall level after April will decrease by 5/8 inches.
Hence, option 4. is correct.
3/5*3/3=9/15
1/3*5/5=5/15
15 is a common denominator.
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
(-1^2)x 3 = 3
-1 x 4 = -4
3--4 = 7
Answer:
49
Step-by-step explanation:
So it seems theres some sort of pattern. When you mutiply 7 by 3 you get 21. When you multply 5 by 7 you get 35. So basically 7 times 7 would be 49. Correct me if im wrong.
