Answer:

  • 40 quarters and 32 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Quarter = 25 ¢, number of quarters = q
  • Dime = 10 ¢, number of dimes = d
  • Total amount = $13.20 = 1320 ¢

<u>Required equations:</u>

  • q + d = 72
  • 25q + 10d = 1320

<u>Solve by elimination, multiply the first equation by 10 and subtract from the second equation:</u>

  • 25q + 10d - 10q - 10d = 1320 - 10*72
  • 15q = 600
  • q = 600/15
  • q = 40

<u>Find p:</u>

  • 40 + p = 72
  • p = 72 - 40
  • p = 32

Answer:

x = 1 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

sqrt( 7x+2) = sqrt(3x+7)

Square each side

(sqrt( 7x+2))^2 = (sqrt(3x+7))^2

7x+2 = 3x+7

Subtract 3x from each side

7x-3x +2 = 3x+7-3x

4x+2 = 7

Subtract 2 from each side

4x+2-2 = 7-2

4x = 5

Divide by 4

4x/4 = 5/4

x = 1 1/4

Check for extraneous solution

sqrt( 7*5/4+2) = sqrt(3*5/4+7)

sqrt( 35/4 + 8/4) = sqrt(15/4+28/4)

sqrt( 43/4) = sqrt(43/4)

Solution is valid
