Juan goes to a bank and gets change for a $50 bill consisting of $5 bills and $1 bills. There are 22 bills in all. How many of each kind are there?
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "Let the number of $1 bills be \"x\" ; value is x dollars
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "# of $5 bills is \"22-x\" ; value is 5*(22-x)= 110-5x dollars
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------
\n" ); document.write( "EQUATION:
\n" ); document.write( "value + value = 50 dollars
\n" ); document.write( "x + 110-5x = 50
\n" ); document.write( "-4x = -60
\n" ); document.write( "x = 15 (# of $1 bills)
\n" ); document.write( "22-x = 7 (# of $5 bills)
\n" ); document.write( "============================
