Which equation can be used to solve the following word problem? Seth has 8 more nickels than dimes, and the total value of his c

9966 [12]

Answer:

Seth has 21 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent the number of nickels. Since Seth has 8 more nickels than dimes, then (n-8) is the number dimes.

Nickel is worth 5 cents and dime is worth 10 cents. Thus, n nickels are worth 5n cents and (n-8) dimes are worth 10(n-8) cents. The total value of Seth's coins is $2.35 that is 235 cents, then

$5n+10(n-8)=235.$

Solve this equation:

$5n+10n-80=235,\\ \\15n=235+80,\\ \\15n=315,\\ \\n=21.$

Julio says if you subtract 17 from my number and multiply the difference by - 2 the result is gonna be negative 12 what was Juli

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking an algebraic approach

let the number be n, then (n - 17) is 17 subtracted from number and

- 2(n - 17) = - 12 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

n - 17 = 6 ( add 17 to both sides )

n = 23

Thus Julio's number was 23
