Let q= number of quarter. Write an equation that relates the amount of money: <IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=0.10d%2B0.25q=6.00 ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"0.10d%2B0.25q=6.00\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" >. Then write an equation to relate the number of dimes and quarters: <IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=d%2Bq+=+39 ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"d%2Bq+=+39\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" >. Solve the second equation for q by subtracting d from both sides: <IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=q=39-d ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"q=39-d\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" >. Now plug this second equation into the first equation: <IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=0.10d%2B0.25%2839-d%29=6.00 ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"0.10d%2B0.25%2839-d%29=6.00\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" >. Solve for d to get d = 25. Then plug this into <IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=d%2Bq+=+39 ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"d%2Bq+=+39\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" > and solve for q to find q=14. The number of dimes is 25 and the number of quarters is 14. I hope this helps. Please visit and join my website at www.myonlinetutor.webs.com for homework help. Thanks! </SPAN>\n" );
