Hi, Previously posted

There are 95 more nickels than dimes.

Let x and (x+95)represent the number of dimes and nickels respectively

Question states*** CENTS makes sense

  10x + 5(x+95) = 1450

     15x = 975

       x = 65, the number of dimes.  Ther is 160 Nickels  (65+95)

CHECKING our Answer***

 65*10 + 160*5 =  650 + 800 = 1450 or $14.50
