Answer:

$60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say we need t $2 bills and v $5 bills.

We need 9 more $2 bills than $5 bills, so:

t = 9 + v

We also know that the amount of money in t $2 bills is 2 * t = 2t. The amount of money in v + 9 $5 bills is 5 * (v + 9) = 5v + 45. These amounts are equal:

5v + 45 = 2t

Plug v + 9 in for t in 5v = 2t + 18:

5v = 2t + 18

5v = 2 * (9 + v) + 18

5v = 18 + 2v + 18

3v = 36

v = 12

We have 12 $5 bills, so that total cost is 12 * 5 = $60.
