If Cody has 11 dimes and quarters in his pocket, and they have a combined value of 170 cents, how many of each coin does he have?

12 dimes and 2 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

12 dimes is 120 cents and 2 quarters is 50 cents that perfectly gives us 170 cents. As worded if he has 11 Dimes and the rest is quarters and we want 170 cents then it's impossible. 11 dimes is going to be 110 cents plus 2 quarters is 160 cents or plus 3 quarters is going to be 185 cents. therefore you are either short or over the money.

56.6

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of the perimeters is equal to the scale.

the ratio of the areas is equal to the square of the scale.

34 / 20 = k

a / 19.6 = k²

substituting:

a / 19.6 = (34 / 20)²

a = 19.6 (34 / 20)²

a ≈ 56.6
