You can write three equations in the numbers of nickels (n), dime (d), and quarters (q).
n + d + q = 23 . . . . . . . there are 23 coins total
0n +d -q = 2 . . . . . . . . .there are 2 more dimes than quarters
5n +10d +25q = 250 . .the total value is $2.50
The collection includes 11 nickels, 7 dimes, and 5 quarters.
_____
I used the matrix function of my calculator to solve these equations. You can find q by subtracting from the last equation five times the sum of the first two equations.
(5n +10d +25q) -5((n +d +q) +(d -q)) = (250) -5(23 +2)
25q = 125 . . . . . . . simplify
q = 5
From the second equation,
d = q +2 = 7
And from the first,
n = 23 -5 -7 = 11
Answer:
0.1
Step-by-step explanation:
0.3 x 7= 2.1
2.1 - 2= 0.1
Answer:
W = 882 N
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
The weight of a person, W = 90 kg
The value of acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²
We need to find the weight of the person on Earth. The formula for the weight of an object is given by :
W = mg
Substitute all the values,
W = 90 kg × 9.8 m/s²
W = 882 N
So, the weight of the person is equal to 882 N.
If they already have $175, they need $250 more dollars. At $8 a water bottle, they would need to sell at least 32 more bottles.
