Answer:
x = 5, y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given equations:</u>
<u>From the first equation we get:</u>
<u>Substitute x in the second equation, find y:</u>
- 3x - y = 17
- 3*(1-2y) - y = 17
- 3 - 6y - y = 17
- -7y = 17 - 3
- -7y = 14
- y = -14/7
- y = -2
<u>Find x:</u>
- x = 1 - 2y
- x = 1 - 2*(-2)
- x = 1 + 4
- x = 5

Answer: there are 8 quarters in the jar
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of nickels that is inside the jar.
The total number of coins inside the jar is 20.
Probability is expressed as
Number of possible or favorable outcomes/total number of outcomes.
The probability of selecting a nickel is 0.6. This is expressed as
0.6 = x/20
Cross multiplying, it becomes
x = 20 × 0.6
x = 12
Since there are 12 nickels inside the jar, then the number of quarters would be
20 - 12 = 8
5*6=30
and 6*5=30
basically we have to take Lcm of 5 and 6=30
30th day they both will be together
9.75 * 1.2 = 11.7
24.5 * .8 = 19.6
11.7+19.6= 31.3 minutes
hope this helped :)
