You can use systems of equations for this one.
We are going to use 'q' as the number of quarters Rafael had,
and 'n' as the number of nickels Rafael had.
You can write the first equation like this:
3.50=0.05n+0.25q
This says that however many 5 cent nickels he had, and however many
25 cent quarters he had, all added up to value $3.50.
Our second equation is this:
q=n+8
This says that Rafael had 8 more nickels that he had quarters.
We can now use substitution to solve our system.
We can rewrite our first equation from:
3.50=0.05n+0.25q
to:
3.50=0.05n+0.25(n+8)
From here, simply solve using PEMDAS.
3.50=0.05n+0.25(n+8) --Distribute 0.25 to the n and the 8
3.50=0.05n+0.25n+2 --Subtract 2 from both sides
1.50=0.05n+0.25n --Combine like terms
1.50=0.30n --Divide both sides by 0.30
5=n --This is how many NICKELS Rafael has.
We now know how many nickels he has, but the question is asking us
how many quarters he has.
Simply substitute our now-known value of n into either of our previous
equations (3.50=0.05n+0.25q or q=n+8) and solve.
We now know that Rafael had 13 quarters.
To check, just substitute our known values for our variables and solve.
If both sides of our equations are equal, then you know that you have
yourself a correct answer.
Happy math-ing :)
Answer:
i think the answer would be 95 degree. im not absolutley positive though
Step-by-step explanation:
i added 35 and 50 and got the sum of 85 then i subtracted 85 from 180 and got 95
feedback is appreciated.
(i'm not gonna beg for brainliest)
You put 4-3 over 7
4-3/7 = 1/7
So the answer would be 1/7

A unit is a measurement. for example, a unit could be an inch, or it could be a foot. to convert you need the exact measurement so if a line is 12 inches it's 1 foot. if it is 13 then it stays in inches. You convert units to the easiest variable to calculate and then you solve your equation from there.
Hope I helped! :)
