Algebra.Com's Answer #365920 by ad_alta(240)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let 'd' be the number of dimes and 'n' the number of nickels. Then 10d+5n=330 and d+n=35. Substituting the second equation into the first we get 10(35-n)+5n=330. So Paul has n=4 nickles and 31 dimes. \n" ); document.write( " |
