<span>Amanda has 26 nickels and dimes. We shall call nickels x and dimes y. We can write the following equations: x = 3y -2 or -x +3y = 2 x + y = 26 We can cancel out the x to give 4y = 28 or y = 7 If there are 26 coins in total and 7 of them are dimes then there must be 19 nickels. The number of nickels (19) is two fewer than three times the number of dimes ( 3(7) - 2 = 19).</span>

A bicycle is traveling at 20 feet per minute. What is the bicycle's speed expressed in inches per second?
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

4 inches per second

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = distance/time

Given

Distance = 20 feet

12 inches = 1 foot

X inches = 20 feet

X = 20 x 12 = 240 inches

Time = 1 minute = 60 secs

Therefore

Speed = 240/60

= 4 inches per second

Marina CMI [18]
Answer: y=12 x=28

Explanation:
x=Amount of Small Lanterns y=Amount of Large Lanterns
25x+40y=1180
x+y=40
x=40-y
25(40-y)+40y=1180
1000-25y+40y=1180
1000+15y=1180
15y=180
y=12
x+12=40
x=28

It may sound like an extremely low value, but 3.0 / 50 s is also a very slow speed.
