So, first lets define our variables: 
 
let x = the number of dimes
let y = the number of nickels

so our first equation would be x+y = 16

Since dimes are 10 cents and nickels are 5 cents the next equation would be as follows: 

.10x+.05y = 1.35

now change the first equation so y = -x+16
now substitute:

.10x+.05(-x+16) = 1.35
then multiply so you get .10x+-.05x+0.8=1.35

combine like terms and you get .05x+0.8 = 1.35
then subtract 0.8 from both sides and you get .05x = 0.55 then subtract
and you get x = 11 then substitute 11 for where x should be and you should get y = 5

So, you have 11 dimes and 5 nickels
