The currency called the U.S dollar can be split into smaller forms or currency value of itself. Examples of these smaller forms are: <u><em>dimes, nickels, pennies, and quarters.</em></u>

Tammy has 23 nickels and 12 quarters.

Let's represent the number of:

Nickels = n

Quarters = q

It is important to note that the value of:

<em>1 nickel = $0.05</em>

<em>1 quarter = $0.25</em>

<em />

Tammy has 35 coins nickels and quarters. This statement can be represented using an algebraic equation below:

n + q = 35

This can be rewritten as :

n = 35 - q

In all, she has $4.15. This statement can be represented using an algebraic equation below:

0.05n + 0.25q = 4.15

We substitute 35 - q for n in the above equation.

0.05(35 - q) + 0.25q = 4.15

1.75 - 0.05q + 0.25q = 4.15

Collect like terms

- 0.05q + 0.25q = 4.15 - 1.75

0.2q = 2.4

Divide both sides by 0.2

0.2q/0.2 = 2.4/0.2

q = 12

Therefore, the number of quarters Tammy has is 12.

Solving for the number of nickels, we have the equation:

n = 35 - q

n = 35 - 12

n = 23

Therefore, the number of nickels Tammy has is 23.

an aquarium is on sale for $59.50 if this price represents a 15% discount from the oringanl price what is the origanl price
Veronika [31]
Question: An aquarium is on sale for $59.50. If this price represents a 15% discount from the original price, what is the original price? 

First, you multiply the sale price and the 15% discount

$59.50*.15 = [tex]$8.92 [/tex] (To change the percent to a decimal, you take out the percentage sign and divide by 100)

Now add $59.50 to $8.92

59.50+8.92=$68.43

Answer:

$68.43 (when rounded to the nearest cent)
or
$68 (when rounded to the nearest dollar)
or
$70 (when rounded to the nearest ten dollar)

All of the following are ways to write 25 percent of N EXCEPT 0.25N 25N/100 1/4N 25N
Olin [163]
The last one would be incorrect. We are looking for PART of whatever N is. Multiply by the whole number 25 is definitely not what we want to do. 

Hope I helped!
