Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 3 (x + 7) =  5x - 2
3x + 21 = 5x - 2
3x - 5x = -2 - 21

-2x = -23 
x = -23/-2
x = 23/2

Bodhi has a collection of 175 dimes and nickels. The collection is worth $13.30. Which equation can be used to find n, the number of nickels in the collection?

Answers

Let

n-------> the number of nickels

d-------> the number of dimes

we know that

1\ nickel=\$0.05

1\ dime=\$0.10

so

0.05n+0.10d=13.30 -----> equation A

n+d=175

d=175-n -------> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

0.05n+0.10(175-n)=13.30 ------> equation that can be used to find n

Solve for n

0.05n+17.5-0.10n=13.30

17.5-13.30=0.10n-0.05n

0.05n=4.2

n=84\ nickel

find the value of d

d=175-n

d=175-84=91\ dimes

therefore

the answer is

The equation that can be used to find n is 0.05n+0.10(175-n)=13.30

The number of nickels in the collection is 84\ nickel

n + d = 175 .... d = 175 - n
0.05n + 0.10d = 13.30

0.05n + 0.10(175 - n) = 13.30 <== and u would just solve for n
