You'll have to solve simultaneously
let nickel be x, dime be y
x + y = 35 ... ( 1 )
5x + 10 y = 250
5 ( x + 2y ) = 250
x + 2y = 50 ... ( 2 )
in ( 1 )
x = 35 - y ( 3 )
sub ( 3 ) into ( 2 )
( 35 - y ) + 2y = 50
y = 15
sub y into ( 1 )
x + y = 35
x + 15 = 35
x = 20
therefore, Sandy has 20 nickels and 15 dimes
Answer:
x = 6/7, y = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
7x + 2y = 7
-14x + 2y = -11
1) 7x + 2y = 7
2y = 7 - 7x
2) -14x + 2y = -11
-14x + 7 - 7x = -11
- 21x = -11-7
- 21x = - 18
x = 18/21 = 6/7
3) 2y = 7 - 7x = 7 - 7*(6/7) = 7 - 6 = 1
2y = 1
y = 1/2
Answer:
Alright well you still need to use the slope formula to find the slope m
m = 3 Hope this helps :)
