Answer: 985 g
Step-by-step explanation:
Total mass = 8 × 500g = 4000g
Let the three new packs be X, Y, and Z, for first, second, and third pack respectively.
4000g = X + Y + Z
let's put X and Z in terms of Y, since we're trying to solve for the second pack.
X = 2Y, and Z = Y + 60
Therefore,
4000 = X + Y + Z
4000 = 2Y + Y +Y + 60
4000 = 4Y +60
4000 - 60 = 4Y
3940 = 4Y
3940 ÷ 4 = Y
985g = Y = mass of the second pack

Answer:
4 nickels
12 dimes
Step-by-step explanation:
Dimes are worth .1 each while nickels are .05 each.
We have 8 more dimes than nickels. Let d represent number of dimes and n for number of nickels. This means we have d=8+n.
If all our nickels and dimes together are worth 1.4 then we have another equation .1d+.05n=1.4
Lets put our equations together:
d=8+n
.1d+.05n=1.4
‐-----------------Plug first equation into second.
.1(8+n)+.05n=1.4
Distribute
.8+.1n+.05n=1.4
Combine like terms
.8+.15n=1.4
Subtract .8 on both sides
.15n=.6
Divide both sides by .15
n=.6/.15=4
Remember there are 8 more dimes so d=8+4=12.
