1. Define values for the number if bills of each denomination (given in the problem):
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = number of $100 bill
\n" ); document.write( "Let 3x = number of $50 bills
\n" ); document.write( "Let 12x = number of $20 bills
\n" ); document.write( "Let 4x = number of $1 bills
\n" ); document.write( "Let x+9 = number of $5 bills \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2. Define values for the dollar values of each denomintion (multiply variable from step 1 by the value of the denomiation):
\n" ); document.write( "Let 100x = value of all $100 bills
\n" ); document.write( "Let 50(30x) = 150x = value of all $50 bills
\n" ); document.write( "Let 20(12x) = 240x = value of all $20 bills
\n" ); document.write( "Let 1(4x) = 4x = value of all $1 bills
\n" ); document.write( "Let 5(x+9) = 5x+45 = value of all $5 bills\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3. Set up the equation:
\n" ); document.write( "\"100x+%2B+150x+%2B+240x+%2B+4x+%2B+5x+%2B+45+=+1043\"
\n" ); document.write( "4. Simplify and solve:
\n" ); document.write( "\"499x+%2B+45+=+1043\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"499x+=+998\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+2\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "5. Substitute x = 2 for all variables in step 1 to determine number of each denomination Malcolme has:
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+2\" $100 bills
\n" ); document.write( "\"3x+=+3%282%29+=+6\" $50 bills
\n" ); document.write( "\"12x+=+12%282%29+=+24\" $20 bills
\n" ); document.write( "\"4x+=+4%282%29+=+8\" $1 bills
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+%2B+9+=+%282%29+%2B+9+=+11\" $5 bills\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "6. Check: Multiply the number of each bill by its face value and sum:
\n" ); document.write( "\"2%28100%29+%2B+6%2850%29+%2B+24%2820%29+%2B+8%281%29+%2B+11%285%29+=+1043\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"1043+=+1043\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
