Answer:
Hi there!
Your answer is:
x= 18
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+70=8x-20
Isolate x on left side
3x+70=8x-20
-8x -8x
-5x +70 = -20
Isolate whole numbers on right side
-5x +70 = -20
-70 -70
-5x = -90
Isolate x by dividing both sides by -5
-5x = -90
/-5
x= 18

The number of dimes is 75 coins.
The number of nickels is 1 coin.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
It is given that,
A box contains 76 coins, only dimes and nickels.
- The 10 cent coin is called a dime.
- Let, the number of dimes be x.
- The 5 cent coin is called a nickel.
- Let, the number of nickels be y.
<u>This is represented by the system of equations :</u>
x + y = 76 -------(1)
10x + 5y = 4.90 ------(2)
Multiply eq (1) by 5 and subtract eq (2) from eq (1),
5x + 5y = 380
-<u>(10x + 5y = 4.90)</u>
<u>-5x = 375.1</u>
x = 375/5
x = 75 coins.
The number of dimes is 75 coins.
Substitute x=75 in eq (1),
y = 76 - 75
y = 1 coin.
The number of nickels is 1 coin.
