Hi there,
\n" ); document.write( "Make dimes = x
\n" ); document.write( "quarters = y
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 70......(1)
\n" ); document.write( "10x + 25y = 1330.....(2)Multiply Eq(1) by 25
\n" ); document.write( "25x + 25y = 1750....(1)
\n" ); document.write( "10x + 25y = 1330.....(2)
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract Eq(2) from Eq(1)
\n" ); document.write( "15x = 420
\n" ); document.write( "x = 420/15
\n" ); document.write( "x = 28
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute x = 28 into Eq(1)
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 70
\n" ); document.write( "28 + y = 70
\n" ); document.write( "y = 70 - 28
\n" ); document.write( "y = 42
\n" ); document.write( "angel had 28 dimes and 42 quarters.
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps :-)
