Thank you! Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If D is the number of dimes and Q is the number of quarters, then their values (in cents) would be 10D and 25Q, respectively...
If their total is at least $30, then we can write
10D + 25Q ≥ 3000 ($30 in cents)
where both D ≥ 1 and Q ≥ 1
