Answer:

37 dimes and 10 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

let d = # dimes

let n = # nickels

we can set up a system of equations:

n + d = 47

.05n + .10d = 4.2

if we solve the first equation for 'n' we get:  

n = 47-d

now we can substitute this in for 'n' in the second equation:

.05(47-d) + .10d = 4.2

2.35 - .05d + .10d = 4.2

2.35 + .05d = 4.2

subtract 2.35 from each side to get:

.05d = 1.85

d = 1.85÷.05

d = 37

if d+n = 47 and d=37 then n = 10

Check:

.05(10) + .1(37) should equal 4.2

.50 + 3.7 = 4.2  [It Checks Out]

valkas [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

in this condition we are given simple interest time and rate

so principal is missing so we should use the formula of principal that is

P=I×100/T×R

but we should convert that month in to years and we convert it by dividing it by 12.

Pentagon jklmn is translated five units up. what is the name of the image after translation?
mrs_skeptik [129]

There will not be any specific name given to that image after translation

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

  • Whatever may be the transformation, either it may be rotation, reflection or translation, the size or shape of the image will not change no matter what the condition is and hence the name of that image will also not change and remains constant.
  • Thus we can conclude that the name of the image will always tend to remain constant and not changes.
