FIRST CORRECT ANSWER GETS A MEDAL! Kyle has a total of 16 coins in his pocket. All the coins are nickels or quarters, and they have a total value of $2.20. How many nickels does Kyle have?
let no of nickel coin = x than quarter = 16-x
value of nickel * x+value of quarter *(16-x)=2.20
put the values of coins here
I still don't understand
9 nickles
nickels*
it's not in the multiple choices
ok what is the value of nickel??
$2.20?
nickel and quarter are there
nickel worth???
lol. If you have 2.20 and 9 of the 16 coins are nickels. You would do 9x5
wait never mind i got it. thank you
nickel equal to 5 cent
quarter = 25 cent
we total have 16 coin now let we x nickel so remaining coins are quarter that is =16-x
value of nickel coin= 5cent *no of nickel coin=5*x value of quarter=25*(16-x)
2.2 dollar=2.2*100 =220 cent and sum of their value = 2.2 dollar=220 cent so 5x+25*(16-x)=220
solve it now
