A collection of nickels and dimes is worth $4.40. There are 53 coins in all. How many nickels are there?
Nickel is a US coin worth 5 cents or 0.05.
Dime is a US coin worth 10 cents or 0.10
n + d = 53
0.05n + 0.10d = 4.40
n = 53 - d
0.05(53 - d) + 0.10d = 4.40
2.65 - 0.05d + 0.10d = 4.40
0.05d = 4.40 - 2.65
0.05d = 1.75
d = 1.75 / 0.05
d = 35
n = 53 - d
n = 53 - 35
n = 18
There are 18 nickels and 35 dimes.
0.05n + 0.10d = 4.40
0.05(18) + 0.10(35) = 4.40
0.90 + 3.5 = 4.40
4.40 = 4.40

Answer:
he sum of four consecutive integers is -42.
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>base and color are in a ratio of 32:1, where color is "x"
924-x/x=32/1
924-x=32x</span><span>33x=924
x = 28 (gallons of color)</span>
Explanation
This exercise is about evaluating a function at a particular argument. To do that, we replace the variable with the argument in the formula of the function, and simplify.
Let's do that:
![\begin{gathered} f(19)=\frac{3}{19+2}-\sqrt[]{19-3}, \\ \\ f(19)=\frac{3}{21}-\sqrt[]{16}, \\ \\ f(19)=\frac{1}{7}-4, \\ \\ f(19)=\frac{1-28}{7}, \\ \\ f(19)=-\frac{27}{7}\text{.} \end{gathered}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20f%2819%29%3D%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B19%2B2%7D-%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B19-3%7D%2C%20%5C%5C%20%20%5C%5C%20f%2819%29%3D%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B21%7D-%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B16%7D%2C%20%5C%5C%20%20%5C%5C%20f%2819%29%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B7%7D-4%2C%20%5C%5C%20%20%5C%5C%20f%2819%29%3D%5Cfrac%7B1-28%7D%7B7%7D%2C%20%5C%5C%20%20%5C%5C%20f%2819%29%3D-%5Cfrac%7B27%7D%7B7%7D%5Ctext%7B.%7D%20%5Cend%7Bgathered%7D)
