X=quarters, y=dimes
7+2x=y
0.25x+0.1y=10.15
we substitute the first equation into the second equation
0.25x+0.1(7+2x)=10.15
0.25x+0.7+0.2x=10.15
0.45x+0.7-0.7=10.15-0.7
0.45x=9.45
0.45x/0.45=9.45/0.45
x=21 quarters
7+2x=y, x=21
7+2(21)=y
7+42=y
y=49 dimes
check: 0.25x+0.1y=10.15 when x=21, y=49
21(0.25)=5.25 in quarters
49(0.1)=4.90 in dimes 
5.25+4.90=10.15

What is the answer to this ?
harina [27]

Answer:

The answer is option 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve x, you have to make x the subject, by multiplying each sides by 5, to get rid of 5 on the left side.

\frac{x}{5}  = 8

\frac{x}{5}  \times 5 = 8 \times 5

x = 40
