Answer:
There are 23 dimes in the box
Step-by-step explanation:
Let nickels=n
Let dimes=(35-n)
Equation: 0.05n+0.10(35-n)=2.90
Multiply both sides by 100: 5n+10(35-n)=290
-5n+350=290
-5n=-60
n=12
35-12=23
Therefore, there are 23 dimes in the box
The answer is 9
12 ounces x
--------------- = ----------------
10 pounds of soil 120 pounds of soil
Set the equation up as a proportion and solve for x:
10x = 1440
---- -----
10 10
x = 144 ounces
The question asks for the answer in pounds, and 16 ounces = 1 pound.
144/16 = 9
