to solve this we need to translate into math terms, so
Step 1
a) let d represents the number of dimes
let n represents the number of nickles
so
re write the expressions
[tex]\begin{gathered} number\text{ of dimes=d} \\ seven\text{ times the number of dimes = 7d} \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]The number of nickels is three more than seven times the number of dimes in other words you have to add 7 to seven times the number of dimes to obtain the number of nickles
hence
[tex]n=7d+3[/tex]therefore , the expression for the number of nickles is
[tex]7d+3[/tex]I hope this helps you
