A:
Answer:Part 1) [tex]E=0.85\ euros[/tex]Part 2) [tex]D=1.18\ dollars[/tex]Step-by-step explanation:The correct question isWe can calculate E, the amount of euros that has the same value as D U.S. dollars, using the equation E=(17/20)D .How many euros have the same value as 1 U.S. dollar? How many U.S. dollars have the same value as 1 euro?Part 1) How many euros have the same value as 1 U.S. dollar? we have[tex]E=\frac{17}{20}D[/tex]soFor D=1substitute in the given equation and solve for E[tex]E=\frac{17}{20}(1)[/tex][tex]E=0.85\ euros[/tex]Part 2) How many U.S. dollars have the same value as 1 euro?we have[tex]E=\frac{17}{20}D[/tex]soFor E=1substitute in the given equation and solve for D[tex]1=\frac{17}{20}D[/tex]Multiply by 20/17 both sides[tex]D=(20/17)(1)\\D=1.18\ dollars[/tex]
