25q + 10d + 5n = 325 d = 5 + q, n = 2d = 10 + 2q so 25q + 10(5 + q) + 5(10 + 2q) = 325 ie 25q + 50 + 10q + 50 +10q = 325 1e 45q = 225 ie q = 5, so d = 10 and n = 20 Check (5 x 25) + (10 x 10) + (20 x 5) = 125 + 100 + 100 = 325 QED
19 Quarters & 11 Nickels Let X = number of quarters & Y = number of nickels So, X = Y +8 (8 more quarters than nickels) 0.25*X + 0.05*Y = 5.30 Substitute first equation for x into second equation: 0.25*(Y+8) + 0.05*Y = 5.30 0.25Y + 2 + 0.05Y = 5.30 0.30Y + 2 = 5.30 0.30Y = 3.3 Y = 11 nickels, so the number of quarters X = 19 We can check these values with the second equation: 0.25*19 + 0.05*11 4.75 + 0.55 = 5.30
