Jim have the shopkeeper six coins that totaled 38 cent for a balloon what were the six coins

We are given that

Shopkeeper has six coins

total number of coins =6

we know that

there are four types of coins

(1) cents

1 cent =1 cent

(2) nickels

1 nickel =5 cents

(3) dimes

1 dimes =10 cents

(4) quarters

1 quarter = 25 cents

so, we can use trial and error method

Since, nickels , dimes and quarter are multiple of 5

and there 38 cents

so, three coins must be cent

number of cent coins =3

so, the remaining cent = 38-3=35

so, possible coins can be 1 quarter and 2 nickels

1 quarter + 2 nickels =25+2(5)=35

so, coins were

Number of cents =3

Number of nickels =2

Number of dimes =0

Number of quarter =1Answer

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

the original amount doesn't ''re just looking for the time it takes for 1/2 of the substance to we have

(1/2) =)     take the ln   of both sides

ln (1/2)   = )   and we can write

ln(1/2) = ) lne     and lne   = 1     so we have

ln(1/2) = -.1092t     divide both sides by -.1092

t = ln(1/2)/-.1092 = about 6.347 days = about 6.3 days (rounded)
