Tim​'s piggy bank contains dimes and nickels worth ​$5.50. He has 70 coins in all. Use substitution to solve the system of equations to find out how many of each coin Tim has.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Tim has a total of 30 nickels and 40 dimes.

What is Linear Equation?

Linear equations are the equations which consist of two or more variables having the exponent of the variable equals 1.

Total number of coins in the Tim's piggy bank = 70 coins

Let d be the number of dime coins and n be the number of nickel coins.

So d + n = 70

Total dollars = $5.50

10 dimes = 1 dollar

1 dime = 1/10 dollar = 0.1 dollar

20 nickels = 1 dollar

1 nickel = 1/20 dollar = 0.05 dollar

0.1 d + 0.05 n = 5.50

So we have two linear equations here :  d + n = 70 and 0.1 d + 0.05 n = 5.50.

d + n = 70 ⇒ d = 70 - n

Substituting d = 70 - n in the equation 0.1 d + 0.05 n = 5.50,

0.1 (70 - n) + 0.05 n = 5.50

(0.1 × 70) - 0.1n + 0.05n = 5.50

7 - 0.05n = 5.50

-0.05n = -1.5

n = 30

So d = 70 - n = 70 - 30 = 40

Hence the number of nickel coins is 30 and number of dime coins is 40.

Answer 2
Answer: 5.50=0.10d+0.05n
70=d+n

how to solve-
n=70-d
5.50=0.10d+0.05(70-d)
5.50 = 0.10d +3.5 -0.05d
5.50= 0.05d+3.5
2=0.05d
d=40

70=d+n
70=40+n
n=30

there are 40 dimes and 30 nickels

How is 47.3 divided by 1 tenth equal to the product 47.3 times 0.1

Answers

Misunderstood.
One tenth is 0.1. If you divide by it you multiply by 10. If you want one tenth of something, you multiply that something by one tenth, that is by 0.1.
One tenth of 47.3 is 47.3 * 0.1 = 4.73. Dividing 47.3 by one tenth you get 473.

Answer:

0.1 = 4.73. Dividing 47.3 by one tenth you get 473.

5k=-84.05 can you help me find k?

Answers


Yes indeed !  You've come to the right place.

You said that                      5k  =  -84.05

Now, watch closely:

Divide each side by  5 :    k  =  -16.81 .
 
84.05/5=k

You need to do the inverse operation of multiplication which is division 

So you need to divide

Almost all nonmetals are very poor conductors of electricity but there is one There is One that is a pretty good conductor which one is it Xenon corban Iodine nitrogen

Answers

Answer:

Carbon

Step-by-step explanation:

Carbon is a non metal but Graphite is a pretty  good conductor of electricity which is an allotrope of Carbon. There are delocalised electrons which are free. These are responsible for conduction.

These arise because each carbon atom is only bonded to 3 other carbon atoms. The structure of Graphite provides for this arrangement. This leaves 1 electron to become delocalised.

Thus Graphite can be used for  electrodes in batteries and for electrolysis.

What is the sum of the measures of the exterior angles of this triangle?A triangle has angles A, C, 51 degrees. Angle A has exterior angle B and angle C has an exterior angle with measure of 112 degrees.

Answers

The measure of ∠B is 119°.

What is the exterior angle?

An exterior angle is a measure of rotation between one extended side(we extend it virtually) of the polygon with its adjacentside which is not extended.

All the exteriorangles are of the same measure, and therefore, their measure is (360/n)°.

The angle adjacent to 112° will form a straight angle along with 112° adding to 180° which makes ∠C=68°

Then;

a+c+51°= 180°

a+68°+51° = 180°

a+119° = 180°

a = 180° - 119°

a = 61°

Now,

a+b = 180°

61+b = 180

b = 180-61

b = 119°
