Answer: 17 nickels, 8 dimes
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are given system of equations, we can use elimination method to find n or d. First, let's eliminate n. To do so, we need to make sure they are equal to each other. Then, we would have to multilpy the second equaiton by 0.05.
0.05N+0.1D=1.65
0.05N+0.05D=1.25
Now, we can subtract the 2 equations.
0.05D=0.4
D=8
Now that we know the number of dimes, we can plug it into any of the equations to find nickels.
N+8=25
N=17
There are 17 nickels and 8 dimes.
I believe 3x-1 is the answer
Answer:
Ok, so this is a word game, basically. The answer would be no, he is not correct BECAUSE...⬇
Step-by-step explanation:
It looks to be asking "Is Jesse correct in saying that he has EXACTLY one liter left?" That would be a no because even though 10L-7L= 3L, the problem asks if he does have exactly ONE liter left, and Jesse says he DOES. But, according to my little equation above, if he drank 7L, he would have 3L left, NOT 1L. Soo, my answer would be "No, Jesse is not correct because 10L-7L=3L and if he says there is 1L left, he would not be correct because there are 3L left." Hope that helps!
