Answer:

n=35; q=33 coins.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) if number of nickles is 'n' and the quaters is 'q' then it is possible to write:

n+q=68 - 'she counted 68 coins...' - the 1st equation of system;

0.25q+0.05n=10 - '10$ in it' - the 2d equation of the system.

2) it is possible to make up and solve the next system of two equations:

\left \{ {{q+n=68} \atop {0.25q+0.05n=10}} \right. \ => \ \left \{ {{q=33} \atop {n=35}} \right. .

a leaky faucet is losing water and is filling a 5-gallon bucket every 20 hours. At that rate, how many gallons of water will the
Arisa [49]
You can either scale down so you can get to 48 hours or just multiply from 20 to 48 and I'll explain both ways.
Scaling down:
You can find how many hours it takes to get to 1 gallon in the bucket by dividing
20÷5=4; It takes 4 hours to fill it up to one gallon.
You can now divide 48 by 4 to see how many gallons it'll take up to 48 hours.
48÷4=12
Quicker:
Divide 48 by 20;
48÷20=2.4
Now multiply since it filled it up to 5 gallons.
2.4×5=12
It'll fill 12 gallons in 48 hours.
