Answer: x = -4 or x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 - 3x - 28 =/>
(factor)
(x^2 + 4)(x-7) = 0
x + 4 = 0 or x - 7 = 0
(subtract -4 from 0 and 7 from 0)
x = -4 or x =7
Let x = the number of dimes
Let y = the number of pennies.
There are 8 coins, therefore
x + y = 8 (1)
The coins are worth 17 cents, therefore
10x + y = 17 (2)
Subtract equation (1) from equation (2).
10x + y - (x + y) = 17 - 8
9x = 9
x = 1
From (1), obtain
y = 8 -x = 8 - 1 = 7
Answer: 1 dime, 7 pennies.
