Divide each side by 28
56/28 = 28a/28
2 =a
Answer:
42 Dimes, 10 Nickels.
Step-by-step explanation:
Dimes are worth $0.10, nickels are worth $0.05.
If D = number of dimes, and N = number of nickels, then the following equations are true:
0.10D + 0.05N = 4.70
D + N = 52
Next, let's multiply the first equation by 10 so that we can subtract the second one from it.
D + 0.50N = 47
(-) D + N = 52
Subtracting the second equation from the first one gives:
-0.5N = -5
-0.5N/-0.5 = -5/-0.5
N = 10
Finally, substitute N in the original second equation to find D.
D + 10 = 52
D + 10 - 10 = 52 - 10
D = 42

Answer: 19,345lb
Step-by-step explanation: 365(53)
At least 14 economy and at least 5 deluxe...total of 45 seats. He makes a bigger profit from selling economy seats....so we need the most economy seats we can get.
45 seats - 5 deluxe = 40 economy
so the most profit would be 40 economy and 5 deluxe
40 economy = (40 x 30) = 1200 profit
5 deluxe = (5 x 25) = 125 profit
for a maximum profit of : $ 1325
