Answer:

Given:  15+6(y-2)=21

Distributive Property tells us that we multiply each term inside the parentheses with the term outside of the parentheses.

a\cdot(b-c) =a\cdot b -a\cdot c

Using distributive property on expression 6(y-2) to solve the further expression as:

15+6\cdot y - 6\cdot 2=21

Simplify:

15+6y-12 =21

Subtract the number 12 from 15 we get 3;

therefore, the expression become:

6y+3=21

Subtraction property of equality tells us that subtract the same number from both sides of an equation.

Now, subtract 3 from both the sides we get;

6y+3-3=21-3

Simplify:

6y=18

Now, divide by 6 on both the sides we get;

\frac{6y}{6}= \frac{18}{6}

On simplify we get;

y =3           Hence Proved!

Jimmy collects nickels and dimes. Right now, he has a total of 40 coins in his piggy bank. If there are seven times as many dime
Colt1911 [192]
Number of nickels plus number of dimes equals total number of coins
so
n + d = 40

then they tell us that "there are seven times as many dimes as there are nickels"
this translates to
d = 7n

we then plug that into our first equation
and get
n + 7n = 40

then we solve for n
add like terms
8n = 40

then divide both sides by 8
n = 40/8 = 5

therefore Jimmy has 5 nickels
