Question 177082
Let the amount of quarters that she has be q
Then the amount of dimes she has is q + 5
And, the amount of nickels she has is 2(q +5), or 2q + 10

Algebraic expression:	.25q + .1(q + 5) + .05(2q + 10)   =   3.25
				.25q + .1q + .5 + .1q + .5   =   3.25
				  		.45q   =   2.25
						    q   =   5
She has 5 quarters  – $1.25 
She has 10 dimes    –  $1.00
She has 20 nickels  -  $1.00
