If there are 12 coins under the couch and every coin is either a nickel or a penny and together they are forming 32 cents then the equations which represent the problem will be x+y=12, 0.01x+0.05y=0.32. The correct option is B which is x+y=12, 0.01x+0.05y=0.32.

Given There are 12 coins and total money is 32 cents.

Let the number of pennies be x and the number of  nickels be y.

According to question there are 12 coins so the first equation becomes:

x+y=12.

Then we have been told that together they amount to 32 cents.

We know that 1 penny is 1 cent coin and 1 nickel is 5 cent coin so the equation becomes :

1*x+5*x=32

x+5y=32

converting into dollar

0.01x+0.05y=0.32.

Hence the right equations showing the problem of nickel and pennies are x+y=12, 0.01x+0.05y=0.32.
