A friend tells you that she has been saving every 5- dollar and every 10 - dollar bill she has received for the last year . She now has 80 bills for a total of $550.00 . How many 5 - dollar bills and how many 10 - dollar bills does she have ? 1 . Write an equation . 2 . Use graphing , substitution or elimination to solve the system of equations . 3 . How many 5- dollar bills and how many 10 - dollar bills does she have ? 4 . Explain why your answer is correct . 5 . Explain why you chose the method .

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

1. The equations are $x+y=80 \ and \ 5x+10y=550$

2. we can use elimination method to solve the problem

3. She has 50 5$ bills and 30 10 $ bills

4. The values of x and y that we found satisfies the two equations which ensures that the solution is correct.

5. Elimination method involves lesser number of steps when compared with graphical method and substitution method.

Explanation:

Number of 5$ bills=x

Number of 10$ bills=y

Total number of bills=80

$x+y=80$

total amount=$550

$5x+10y=550$

Here we have two equations and we can use elimination method to solve the set of equations

$x+y=80$ (Equation 1)

$5x+10y=550$ (Equation 2)

We have to make the coefficient of one variable in both equations same.

Let us make the coefficient of x same.

$(1) * 5 => 5x+5y=400$ (Equation 3)

Subtract (3)from (2)

$5x+10y-(5x+5y)=550-400$

$5x+10y-5x-5y=150$

$5y=150$

$y=150/5=30$

Substitute the value of y in equation (1)

$x+y=80$

$x+30=80$

$x=80-30=50$

x=50

y=30

Answer 2

Answer:

Answer:

Answer is in the explanation.

Explanation:

Let's make a system of equations.

5x+10y=550

x+y=80

Now let's use elimination

-5x-5y=-400

5x+10y=550

__________

5y=150

y=30

Then subsitute 30 in for y to find x. This will leave you with x=50. You will have 50 $5 bills and 30 $10 bills. You can check by subsituting x for 50 and y for 30 in both equations to show why it is correct. Eliminating makes it easier to solve the system of equations.

What is the difference between a reptile and amphibian , thanks

Answers

A reptile is a mammal that lives on land with scales whereas an amphibian is a creature that lives in both land and water so has gills but grows lungs as it ages

A reptile is an animal who lives on land and lays eggs. They almost all have scales (if not all). Amphibians are animals who mostly of the time are animals born in the water and grow up to live on land and water. Gills get replaced with lungs, but there are some exceptions.

What is the name of the particle that circles the nucleus of an atom

Answers

Answer: Electrons are the particles that circles the nucleus of an atom.

Explanation: Each atom has its nucleus. Nucleus present at the centre of the atom.

Inside the nucleus protons and neutrons are present. Protons has positively charged particles on the other hand Neurons are neutral they have no charge.

So, the positive charge of protons make nucleus a positively charged.

Electrons are negatively charged particles. They circles around the positively charged nucleus. Positive charge of nucleus make negatively charged electrons to circle around nucleus.

electron, it has a negative charge of however many there are that are circling the atom.

Answers

Answer:

b. Air pollution, Contributed to the heat wave in Europe and the thousands of death in France.

Explanation:

Heat wave is referred to a period of extremely hot weather in Europe.
During this period several deaths resulting from extreme heat and related health isssues were reported.
The main cause of such a rise temperature is the Global warming.
The temperature of the atmosphere is maintained due to the green house effect otherwise the temperature of the Earth would have dropped below freezing point at night.
When the amount of green house gases rises in atmosphere, more and more heat is trapped and the temperature of the earth rises .
The rise in amount of green house gases in atmosphere is the result of Air pollution.
Burning of fuels, use of CFCs and HCFCs etc contribute to this rise.
Thus, air pollution contributed to the heat waves.
