X = quarters
y = dimes
0.25x + 0.10y = 6.95 or 25x + 10y = 695
x + y = 44
25x + 10y = 695
25 (x + y = 44)
25x + 10y = 695
25x + 25y = 1,100
-15y = -405
y = 27 dimes
and 17 quarters

Answer:
f(x) is the total cost and x is the number of peaches.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that each peach costs $0.75. This means the expression 0.75x represents the total cost of peaches; this makes x represent the number of peaches.
We also know that $2.25 is the cost of juice. Adding it to the cost of peaches gives us the total cost; this means f(x) represents the total cost.
-- The graph looks like a line that passes through the origin,
and slopes up to the right at a 45-degree angle.
-- Point #1 on the line:
. . . . . Pick any number.
. . . . . Write it down twice.
. . . . . Call the first one 'x'. Call the second one 'y'.
-- Point #2 on the line:
. . . . . Pick any other number.
. . . . . Write it down twice.
. . . . . Call the first one 'x'. Call the second one 'y'.
-- Point #3 on the line:
. . . . . Pick any other number.
. . . . . Write it down twice.
. . . . . Call the first one 'x'. Call the second one 'y'.
Rinse and repeat, as many times as you like,
until the novelty wears off and you lose interest.
