Roderick is counting the change on his dresser. He has twice as many pennies as he does dimes. He has twice the amount of dimes

as he does nickels. He has 3 fewer quarters than dimes. Which variable definition would be easiest for Roderick to use when writing expressions for the number of all the coins?
x = number of pennies because the penny has the least value of all the coins.
x = number of nickels because there are fewer nickels than any other coin.
x = number of dimes because all the other coins are compared to dimes.
x = number of quarters because it has the greatest value of all the coins.

Answer:

x = number of nickels because there are fewer nickels than any other coin.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pennies =  2* Dimes

Dimes = 2*Nickels

Quarters = Dimes - 3

so

p = 2d

d = 2n

q = d - 3

q = 2n - 3

q + 3 = 2n = p/2

p = 2q + 6

n = (q + 3)/2

d = p/2 = q + 3

the least amount is n

n < d < p,  so  let x = n

p = 2q + 6

n = (q + 3)/2

d = p/2 = q + 3

------------------

This is a better explanation here:

x = n =(q + 3)/2

 2x - 3 = q

so...  

q = 2x - 3

p = 2q + 6 = 2*(2x - 3) + 6 = 4x

n = ((2x - 3) + 3)/2 =  x

d = q + 3 = 2x - 3 + 3 = 2x

Find the Perimeter of this shape. Can someone explain to me how to find the perimeter.
Agata [3.3K]
The little lines in each side show that the sides are the same length but you also need to find the length of the smaller side which isn’t the same. For this imagine that the shape is split into a square and a triangle and you need to find the long side of the triangle using Pythagoras
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
20^2 + 20^2 = 800
Square root of 800 = 28.3
Then do 28.3-20=8.3
So I think the answer is 20+20+20+20+20+8.3=108.3 cm
