D+n=25 subtract d from both sides *(if your wondering what d and n are it stands for Dimes and Nickels)* n=25-d
0.10d+0.05= 1.85
0.10d+0.05(25-d)= 1.85
0.10d+1.25-0.05d= 1.85
0.05d = 0.60

My answer: He has 12 dimes (d=12) and 25-12=13 so 13 nickels.. Hope this helps! :)
5x -3 = 12
5x -3 + 3 = 12 + 3 [Add 3 to each side]
5x + 0 = 15 [Evaluate]
5x/5 = 15/5 [Divide each side by 5]
1x = 3 [Evaluate]
The answer I get is the number 3.
Okay so, you have to think so lets say Kayla bought 30 kilograms of chicken nuggets (k), for $20 (p). You would put t=pk. Because if you change (p) and (k) you will get a different (t).
X = -6/5 I hope this helps
