Answer:

(3,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 2y = 17

3x - 2y = 7

Add the two equations to eliminate y

5x + 2y = 17

3x - 2y = 7

---------------------

8x   = 24

Divide each side by 8

8x/8 = 24/8

x =3

Now we need to find y

5x+2y = 17

5(3) +2y =17

15+2y =17

Subtract 15 from each side

15-15+2y =17-15

2y =2

Divide each side yby2

2y/2 =2/2

y=1

A woman has twice as many dimes as quarters in her purse. If the dimes were quarters and the quarters were dimes, she would have
Digiron [165]
If x = # of quarters, then, the # of dimes will be equal to 2x. The total value (z) would be equal to:

z = 0.25x + 0.10(2x)

Then, since you switch the quarters and the dimes, and you have a new total, the resulting equation will be:

1.2 + z  = 0.25(2x) + 0.10(x)

Plug in the values you know:

1.2 + (0.25x + 0.10(2x)) = 0.25(2x) + 0.10(x)

Solve for x:

1.2 + (0.25x + 0.20x) = 0.50x + 0.10x
1.2 + 0.45x = 0.60x
1.2 = 0.15x
x = 1.2/0.15 = 8

This means that there are 8 Quarters in her bag right now. So, the amount of dimes is just 2x which is 16. So your answer will be:

She has 8 Quarters and 16 Dimes in her bag right now. Or, $3.60.

If this doesn't make sense, then tell me. I have some resources where I got the answer from to put it into simplest terms. I have the website if you want.
