Step-by-step explanation:

number \: of \: ways \: to \:  select \: 3 \: out \:   of \:  9 =  {C}^{9}_3  = 84

Sally has twice as many dimes as nickels. The total value is $3.50 how many nickels and dimes does she have?
Murljashka [212]
D=2n
.05n+.1d=3.5
I multiplied the nickels and dimes by these values because that is their actual monetary value 
.05n=3.5-.1d
multiply everything by 20
n=70-2d
d/2=70-2d
.5d+2d=70 
2.5d=70
d=28 
n=14 
so there are <u>28 dimes and 14 nickels 
</u>
checking this answer 
28 dimes = $2.8
14 nickels = .70
2.8+.7=3.5
