Question

Help Please :)

Answer 1

you would write two equations so u could find the solution of the system

Answer 2

those equations would be
x+y=52
.25x+.05y=$6.00
where x=quarters y=nickels

Answer 3

do you understand so far?

Answer 4

Yes, writing all down

Answer 5

then you could use subsitution to solve the system of equations
x=-y+52 so you could subsitute in for x
then you would have
.25(-y +52) + .05y= 6.00

Answer 6

simplfiy to get -.25y+13+.05y=6.00
simplfiy to get -.20y=-7
simplify to get y=35

Answer 7

you would then insert y into one of the equations to figure out what x equals

Answer 8

x+y=52
x+35=52
x=17
OR
.25x+.05y=6.00
.25x+.05(35)=6
.25x+1.75=6
.25x=4.25
x=17

Answer 9

you could then subsitute both x and y back into the equation to make sure you are correct

Answer 10

x+y=52
17+35=52 YES
AND
0.25x+0.05y=6.00
0.25(17)+0.05(35)=6.00
4.25+1.75=6.00 YES

Answer 11

your final answer would be 17 quarters and 35 nickels

Answer 12

Hope you understood and good luck with your studies(:

Answer 13

I did, thanks ! :)

Answer 14

are you any good with mixture problems?

Answer 15

No im afraid not, sorry.

Answer 16

its ok :)
