You can put this solution on YOUR website!
With \"x\"= number of dimes, one possible equation is \"highlight%2810x%2B5%2810x%29=280%29\" .
\n" ); document.write( "So, \"10x\"= number of nickels;
\n" ); document.write( "\"10x\"= value of the \"x\" dimes, in cents;
\n" ); document.write( "\"5%2810x%29\" number of the \"10x\" nickels, in cents,
\n" ); document.write( "and \"10x%2B5%2810x%29\"= total value, in cents, of the dimes and nickels,
\n" ); document.write( "which should be \"280\" , because that is $2.80, in cents.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
