<span>Let n = the number of nickles
Let q = the number of quarters
Then for your problem we have
(1) n + q = 43 and
(2) 5*n + 25*q = 100*6.95 (always work in cents to avoid decimal numbers) or
(3) 5*n + 25*q = 695
Now substitute n of (1) into (3) and get
(4) 5*(43 - q) + 25*q = 695 or
(5) 215 - 5*q + 25*q = 695 or
(6) 20*q = 695 - 215 or
(7) 20*q = 480 or
(8) q = 24
Then using (1) we get
(9) n + 24 = 43 or
(10) n = 19
Let's check these values.
Is (.05*19 + .25*24 = 6.95)?
Is (.95 + 6.00 = 6.95)?
Is (6.95 = 6.95)? Yes
Answer: Kevin and Randy have 19 nickles and 24 quarters in the jar.</span>
Hello,
In this pattern you can notice that the numbers and letters alternate, 1 by 1. Also, from each number to the next, 3 is added. (4 + 3 = 7, 7 + 3 =10, 10 + 3 = 13). For the letters, it goes in alphabetical order with two letters being skipped between each letter. (D, G, J).
Based on the number letter pattern, the last value is a number indicating a letter is next. Now, we just follow the same "skip two" letters pattern to get from J to M.
I believe M is the answer.
Hope this helps!
