Answer:

25 cent stamps = 13 and 29 cent stamps = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 25 cent stamps and y = 29 cent stamps

x + y = 28......x = 28 - y

0.25x + 0.29y = 7.60

0.25(28 - y) + 0.29y = 7.60

7 - 0.25y + 0.29y = 7.60

-0.25y + 0.29y = 7.60 - 7

0.04y = 0.60

y = 0.60 / 0.04

y = 15 <===== 29 cent stamps

x + y = 28

x + 15 = 28

x = 28 - 15

x = 13 <===== 25 cent stamps

lets check it...

0.25x + 0.29y = 7.60

0.25(13) + 0.29(15) = 7.60

3.25 + 4.35 = 7.60

7.60 = 7.60 (correct..it checks out)
