The height of a stack of 12 pennies is 18.24 millimeters. What is the thickness of each penny.
Helga [31]
I’m not great at math so I could easily be wrong, but

I divided the 18.24 millimeters by 12 pennies and got 1.52

So if the pennies are all the same size, each penny should 1.52 millimeters.

To show work:

18.24/12=1.52

4a+6b=10<br> 2a-4b=12<br><br> what does 12a =?
Usimov [2.4K]
If you have at least as many equations as your have unknown variables, the 'system' is solvable (unless the equations are copies of eachother).

In this case, isolate one letter and plug it in the other. I'm going for the 2a in the bottom one (it doesn't matter)

2a - 4b = 12 => (divide by two and move the b's to the other side)

a = 6 + 2b. (plug this one into the top equation)

4(6+2b) + 6b = 10 => 24+8b+6b = 10 => 24 + 14b = 10 => 14b = -14 => b=-1

a = 6 + -2 = 4.

So a=4 and b=-1.
