280/4 = 70 miles per hour. Next, take the unit rate and multiply it by the number of hours you are trying to find. In this case, you are trying to find 6 hours and 30 minutes, but this can also be rewritten as 6.5, since 30 minutes is half an hour. So, in 6.5 hours, the car can go 455 miles

Part of the proceeds from a garage sale was $470 worth of $10 and $20 bills. If there were 14 more $10 bills than $20 bills, fin

There are 25 $10 bills and 11 $20 bills.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Worth of proceeds from garage = $470

Let,

x be the number of $10 bills

y be the number of $20 bills.

According to given situation;

10x+20y=470 Eqn 1

x = y+14 Eqn 2

Putting value of x from Eqn 2 in Eqn 1

$10(y+14)+20y=470\\10y+140+20y=470\\30y=470-140\\30y=330$

Dividing both sides by 30

$\frac{30y}{30}=\frac{330}{30}\\y=11$

Putting y=11 in Eqn 2

$x=11+14\\x=25$

There are 25 $10 bills and 11 $20 bills.
