.1x + .25y = 5.45
x + y = 29

Multiply the second equation by -.1
 .1x + .25y = 5.45
-.1x - .1y  = -2.9  Now add the equations together, the x's will cancel.
------------------------
       .15y  = 2.55  Divide both sides by .15
         y = 17
29 - 17 = 12
12 dimes and 17 quarters

CHECK
12 * .1 + 17*.25 = $5.45

90 x= 81 + 25 <br> I need help ?
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

x = \frac {53} {45}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Combine on the right side </u>

90x = 81 + 25

90x = 106

<u>Step 2:  Divide both sides by 90 </u>

\frac {90x} {90} = \frac {106} {90}

x = \frac {106/2} {90/2}

x = \frac {53} {45}

Answer:  x = \frac {53} {45}
