Answer:

x + Y = 39 or x = 39-y

20x + 50y = 1.40

20 (39 - y) + 50y = 11.40

7.80 - 20y + 50y = 11.40

30y = 11.40 - 7.80

30y = 3.60

y = 3.60/30

y = 12 50p coins were collected.

x = 39 - 12 = 27 20p coins were collected.

Proof:

20*27 + 50*12 = 11.40

5.40 + 6 = 11.40

11.40 = 11.40

I hope it helps.

Answer:

  12 50p coins were collected

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of 50p coins. Then 39-x is the number of 20p coins. The total value of coins collected was ...

  20(39-x) +50(x) = 1140

  780 +30x = 1140 . . . . . . . simplify

  30x = 360 . . . . . . . . subtract 780

  x = 12 . . . . . . . . . divide by 30

12 of the 50p coins were collected.

__

39 -12 = 27 of the 20p coins were collected.

Consider triangle abc what is the value of y in the triangle
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

y = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

All triangle angles add up to 180 degrees.

To set this equation up, you need to add everything given in the triangle and set it equal to 180:

y + y + 80 = 180

<em><u>Add like terms:</u></em>

2y + 80 = 180

<u><em>Subtract 80 from both sides:</em></u>

2y + 80 = 180

     - 80   - 80

___________

2y = 100

<u><em>Divide both sides by 2:</em></u>

y = 50

<u><em>If you're unsure, you can plug in the 50 for y:</em></u>

y + y + 80 = 180

50 + 50 + 80 = 180

100 + 80 = 180

180 = 180

A basket contains the following pieces of fruit: 3 apples, 4 oranges, 4 bananas, 2 pears, and 3 peaches. Jonas picks a fruit at
yuradex [85]

Answer:

Probability that Jonas gets an orange is 1/4 and Beth gets a peach is 3/16.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,

The total number of fruits n(S) = 3 + 4 + 4 + 2 + 3

= 16

The total number of oranges n(O) = 4

The total number of peas n(P) = 3

Now,

P(O) = n(O)/n(S)

= 4/16

= 1/4

Again,

P(P)= n(P)/n(S)

= 3/16
