I HAVE 19 COINS TO MAKE A DOLLAR. THE COINS ARE 9 DIMES AND 10 PENNIES. THE NEXT PROBLEM SAYS USE HALF AS MANY DIMES AS PENNIES STILL MAKING A DOLLAR WITH 19 COINS. SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN BECAUSE I REALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND!!!!!

THX

PLEASE JUST EXPLAIN WHAT IT MEANS I DON'T HAVE TO HAVE THE ANSWER ILL TRY IT BY MYSELF!

Sure! Let's break down the problem step by step to help you understand.

In the first problem, you have a total of 19 coins that add up to a dollar. Your coins consist of 9 dimes and 10 pennies. To find out how much money you have, we can calculate as follows:

The value of a dime is 10 cents, so 9 dimes would be 9 * 10 = 90 cents.
The value of a penny is 1 cent, so 10 pennies would be 10 * 1 = 10 cents.
Adding the values of the dimes and pennies together, we have a total of 90 cents + 10 cents = 100 cents or 1 dollar.

In the second problem, it states that you still have a total of 19 coins that add up to a dollar. However, this time you need to use half as many dimes as pennies. Let's call the number of pennies P and the number of dimes D.

So, we have D = P/2.

Since you have a total of 19 coins, we can write the equation: P + D = 19.

Now, we can substitute the value of D in terms of P (using D = P/2) into the equation. So it becomes:

P + P/2 = 19.

To simplify this equation, we can multiply everything by 2:

2P + P = 38.

Combining like terms, we get:

3P = 38.

To solve for P, we divide both sides of the equation by 3:

P = 38/3.

Since you can't have a fraction of a coin, we need to round P to the nearest whole number, which is 13.

Now that we know P = 13, we can substitute this value back into the equation D = P/2 to find D:

D = 13/2 = 6.5.

Again, we can't have half of a dime, so we need to round D to the nearest whole number, which is 6.

Therefore, the solution to the second problem is to use 6 dimes and 13 pennies to make a dollar, with a total of 19 coins.

I hope this explanation helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.

Sure, I can explain the problem to you.

In the first problem, you have 19 coins in total, consisting of 9 dimes and 10 pennies. To solve this problem, you need to figure out how to make a total value of one dollar using these coins.

A dime is worth 10 cents, so 9 dimes would be worth 90 cents. Since pennies are worth 1 cent each, 10 pennies would be worth 10 cents. Therefore, the total value of the coins you have is 90 cents + 10 cents = 100 cents or 1 dollar. So, in the first problem, you've successfully used 19 coins to make a dollar.

Now, let's move on to the second problem. It says to use half as many dimes as pennies to still make a dollar with 19 coins. To solve this, we need to find half of the value of dimes from the first problem, which is 90 cents / 2 = 45 cents.

Since we still have 19 coins to work with, we need to figure out the number of dimes and pennies that will add up to 45 cents and also make 19 coins in total.

Here's what you can do to find the solution:

1. Start with assuming you have x number of dimes.
2. Since you need half as many dimes as pennies, you will have 2x number of pennies.
3. Calculate the total value of dimes by multiplying the value of a dime (10 cents) by the number of dimes (x). This will give you 10x cents.
4. Calculate the total value of pennies by multiplying the value of a penny (1 cent) by the number of pennies (2x). This will give you 2x cents.
5. Add the values of dimes and pennies together and set it equal to 45 cents.
10x + 2x = 45
6. Solve the equation and find the value of x. This will give you the number of dimes.
7. Once you have the number of dimes, you can calculate the number of pennies by multiplying x by 2.
8. Check if the total number of coins (dimes + pennies) is equal to 19 and if the total value of the coins equals one dollar.

By following these steps, you should be able to find the values of x (number of dimes) and the total number of pennies that will satisfy the problem's conditions.
