A container holds a combination of nickels and quarters. There are 156 coins in all, and their total value is $21.60. The system

Tatiana [17]

X+y=156
0.05x+0.25y=21.6

-1/4*/ x+y=156
1/20x+1/4y=216/10

-1/4x-1/4y=156*-1/4=-39

1/20x+1/4y=216/10
+--------------------------
-4/20x=-17,4

x=87

x+y=156

87+y=156 y=69

this question answer is 87 nickels and 69 quarters
