A cashier has a total of 126 bills, made up of fives and tens. The total value of the money is $840. How many of each kind does he have?
\n" ); document.write( "----------
\n" ); document.write( "Let # of $5 bills be x; These are worth $5x
\n" ); document.write( "# of 10 bills is 126-x; These are worth 10(126-x)=$(1260-10)
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "EQUATION:
\n" ); document.write( "valur + value = 840
\n" ); document.write( "5x + 1260-10x=840
\n" ); document.write( "-5x=-420
\n" ); document.write( "x=84 (# of $5 bills)
\n" ); document.write( "126-x= 42 (# of $10 bills)
\n" ); document.write( "==========
