Answer:
168/(x² +7x)
Step-by-step explanation:
The height of each window is 14/(x+7), and the width of each window is 12/x. The area of each window is the product of its height ans width:
area = (14/(x+7))(12/x) = 168/(x(x +7))
area = 168/(x² +7x)
_____
<em>Comment on the problem</em>
There is not enough information given to determine suitable values for x. If x is 42, each window is a square 3 3/7 inches on a side.
Let's make a system of equations to solve for this:
n + q = 84
0.05n + 0.25q = 12.80
where n = nickels and q = quarters.
---
Solve for n in the first equation by subtracting q from both sides.
n = 84 - q
---
Plug n into the second equation.
0.05(84 - q) + 0.25q = 12.80
Distribute 0.05 inside the parentheses.
4.2 - 0.05q + 0.25q = 12.80
Combine like terms.
4.2 + 0.2q = 12.80
Subtract 4.2 from both sides.
0.2q = 8.6
Divide both sides by 0.2.
q = 43
---
Plug 43 for q in the first equation.
n + (43) = 84
Subtract 43 from both sides.
n = 41
---
There are 41 nickels and 43 quarters in the piggy bank. ✅
