Step-by-step explanation:
1. divide .5 from 100 and you will end up with 200.
2. multiply 200 by 8 giving you the answer 1600
to make sure the answer is correct you multiply the .5 percent by 1600 leaving you with 8

<em>Answers below</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Equation</u>
Let's call:
p = number of pennies Janesa has in her pocket
n = number of nickels Janesa has in her pocket
She has 24 coins in total, thus:
![p + n=24\qquad\qquad [1]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=p%20%2B%20n%3D24%5Cqquad%5Cqquad%20%5B1%5D)
Since each penny is worth $0.01 and each nickel is worth $0.05, and Janesa has $1 in total:

Multiplying by 100:
![p+5n=100\qquad\qquad [2]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=p%2B5n%3D100%5Cqquad%5Cqquad%20%5B2%5D)
A. Completing the equation:

B.
From [1]:

Substituting into [2]:

Simplifying:

Rearranging:



B. There are 5 pennies in Janesa's pocket
C. Since each penny is worth $0.01, the total value of pennies is 5*$0.01=$0.05
The total value of the pennies is $0.05
D. The total value of the nickels is 19*$0.05 = $0.95
E. Jackson should say she has 19 nickels and 5 pennies
Answer:
Carter family = 25 hours
Davis family = 31 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the number of hours the Carter family used their sprinkler is x and the number of hours the Davis family used their sprinkler for is y.
So combined:
x + y = 45 hours
and we are also told that:
40x + 15y = 1300 L
So we can do simultaneous equations to solve the problem.
With some rearranging, we can figure out that:
y= 45 - x
and by substituting that into the second equation:
40x + 15 (45 -x) = 40x + 675 - 15x = 1300L
25x = 1300 - 675
25x = 625
x = 25 = hours that the Carter family used their sprinkler
and we can substitute that back into the original equation to find how many hours the Davis family used their sprinkler so:
25 + y = 56
y = 31
The Davis family used their sprinkler for 31 hours whilst the Carter family used their sprinkler for 25 hours.
Answer:
x=40
Step-by-step explanation:
you have to get a answer of 60
(40)+20=60
and 2(40)-20=60
