Question 566971
<font face="Times New Roman" size="+2">


Let *[tex \Large x] represent the number of $5 bills.  Let *[tex \Large y] represent the number of $10 bills.  The value of all of the $5 bills is then *[tex \Large 5x] dollars, and the value of the $10 bills is *[tex \Large 10y] dollars.  The number of bills is 37 and the total value of the bills is $265, so:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ x\ +\ y\ =\ 37]


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 5x\ +\ 10y\ =\ 265]


Solve the 2X2 system.

*[tex \LARGE e^{i\pi} + 1 = 0]
My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
