Let
n-------> the number of nickels
q------> the number of quarters
we know that

so
----> equation A
----> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A
![0.05n+0.25[3n]=1.60](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=0.05n%2B0.25%5B3n%5D%3D1.60)



Find the value of q

therefore
<u>The answer part a) is</u>
the number of nickels are
and the number of quarters are 
<u>the answer Part b) is</u>
The expressions that represents the number of quarters is
The value of x is 24 because 24-12=12
I worked it out by doing the opposite so by doing 12+12
Then the value of y is also 24 and I used the same method
Answer:
y = 2x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept is clearly marked: it's b = 3 (or 0, 3).
Going from the point (-3, -3) to the point (0, 3),
x increases by 3 and y increases by 6. Thus, the slope of the line through these two points is m = rise / run = 6 / 3, or m = 2.
Starting with the slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line:
y = mx + b, we substitute 2 for m and 3 for b, obtaining:
y = 2x + 3
