<span>B. Dr. Appiah’s patients’ ages vary less than do Dr. Singh’s patients’ ages.

Width: x
length: x + 4
Equation: 2(x + x + 4) = 56
2(2x + 4) = 56
4x + 8 = 56
4x = 48, x = 12
Width = 12, 12 + 4 = length
Solution: the length is 16 inch
N = nickels and q = quarters
0.05n + 0.25q = 1.90
n = 2q + 3
0.05(2q + 3) + 0.25q = 1.90
0.10q + 0.15 + 0.25q = 1.90
0.10q + 0.25q = 1.90 - 0.15
0.35q = 1.75
q = 1.75/0.35
q = 5 ......there are 5 quarters
n = 2q + 3
n = 2(5) + 3
n = 10 + 3
n = 13 <=== there are 13 nickels
