There are 187 nickels and 66 dimes in the jar.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Total coins = 253
Value of coins = $15.95 = 15.95*100 = 1595 cents
Value of each nickel = 5 cents
Value of each dime = 10 cents
According to given statement;
x+y=253 Eqn 1
5x+10y=1595 Eqn 2
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 5
Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2
Dividing both sides by 5
Putting y=66 in Eqn 1
There are 187 nickels and 66 dimes in the jar.

Answer:
I would say D. There is no logical explanation for the final answer but there is for everything else.
For A: Makes sense because 3x-2 are in parenthesis outside a number so you can multiply.
For B: Makes sense because you are allowed to add/subtract like terms but in this case only subtracting would make sense, (which is what they did) since you want to get all the like terms on one side.
For C: Makes sense because you are trying to simplify the equation, and they are both like terms (they are both numbers that have no letter attached to them) and they are on the opposite side making them able to be simplified.
For D: No idea what the point is.
Answer:
C. 60° and 80°
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of triangle = 180°
Therefore,
8x + 4 + 6x - 2 + 10x + 10 = 180
Add like terms
8x + 6x + 10x + 4 - 2 + 10 = 180
24x + 12 = 180
24x = 180 - 12
24x = 168
x = 168/24
x = 7
Find each measure of the angles by substitute x = 7 into each expression
8x + 4 = 8(7) + 4 = 60°
6x - 2 = 6(7) - 2 = 40°
10x + 10 = 10(7) + 10 = 80°
The answer is 60° and 80°
To fine the mean for a first add up all the players heights then divide by the number of players.
Mean=(198+199+200+201+202)÷5
=1000÷5
=200
The answer to a is 200
For question be were gonna say for now that the height of our new player is represented by x. So we know that together there is 6 players and we know our answer so it should look something like this
201= (199+198+199+200+201+202+x) ÷ 6
201=1000+x ÷ 6
Then Im going to multiply 201 by 6 to get rid of the 6 on the other side.
1206=1000+x
Then I’m going to subtract 1000 from both sides to get x by itself
206=x
So the new players height is 206 .
