sheryl saves her dimes and quarters. she currently has a total of 24 coins, all of which are dimes and quarters. Write an equation that gives the total amount of money M in dollars as a function of the number of dimes d she has
-------------------
Quantity: d + q = 24 coins
Value: M = (10/100)d + (25/100)q
M = 0.1d + 0.25q
