1+7 and 7+1 are the same equations. The numbers are just switched around .
Example:
1+2=3
2+1+3
<span>They add up to the same answer no matter where they are placed, therefore knowing 1+7 helps you find the sum of 7+1 (again, because they are the same) </span>
It would be (x-4)^2
It has a horizontal shift of 4 to the right
We are given
piggy bank has nickels , dimes and quarters
Let's assume
number of nickels =n
every two nickels there are 3 dimes
so, number of dimes are


every two dimes that are 5 quarters there
so, number of quarters are


so, total number of coins = number of nickels + number of dimes +number of quarters
total number of coins =n+1.5n+3.75
there are 500 coins
so, we get

now, we can solve for n

divide both sides by 6.25
so, we get

number of dimes is 1.5n


number of quarters is 3.75n


so,
Number of nickels =80
Number of dimes =120
Number of quarters =300............Answer
-3x-2.5=y would be an equivalent to that equation
