Question 1061128: You have only nickels and dimes. When you ran it through a coin couter you ended up with less than 595 cents. Write and equation in standard form that represents this situation. What are 3 combinations you can have of nickels and dimes
Answer by CubeyThePenguin(3113) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x = number of nickels
y = number of dimes

The solution to this problem is in this area:

x > 0
y > 0
5x + 10y < 595

Like before, (x, y) = (1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3) are valid solutions.
