Kristen has 64 coins in her bank. She has $9.25 in dimes and quarters. How many dimes and quarters does she have?

Stella [2.4K]

D= # of dimes
q= # of quarters

QUANTITY EQUATION:
d + q= 64

COST EQUATION:
0.10d + 0.25q= $9.25

STEP 1:
multiply quantity equation by -0.10 to be able to eliminate the d term in step 2

(-0.10)(d + q)= (-0.10)(64)
-0.10d - 0.10q= -6.40

STEP 2:
add equation from step 1 to cost equation to eliminate the d term and solve for q

Add
0.10d + 0.25q= $9.25
-0.10d - 0.10q= -6.40

0.15q= 2.85
divide both sides by 0.15

q= 19 quarters

STEP 3:
substitute q value in step 2 into either original equation to find d value

d + q= 64

d + 19= 64
subtract 19 from both sides

d= 45 dimes

CHECK:
0.10d + 0.25q= $9.25
0.10(45) + 0.25(19)= 9.25
4.50 + 4.75= 9.25
9.25= 9.25

ANSWER: There are 45 dimes and 19 quarters.

Hope this helps! :)

For breakfast, Clarissa can choose from oatmeal, cereal, French toast, or scrambled eggs. She thinks that if she selects a break

makvit [3.9K]

Clarissa is not correct. If she were to choose one from the stack at random, it means that she has a 25%, or a 1/4 chance to pick the oatmeal, just like the other breakfast items.

If there were to be more oatmeals than any of the other items, it will heighten the chance of her getting oatmeal which would be the only way to make her statement correct.
