Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
We will let d represent the amount of dimes Angela has.
Angel has 5 fewer quarters than twice the number of dimes.
Twice the number of dimes will be 2d.
Then, 5 fewer will yield 2d-5.
Therefore, the amount of quarters Angela has is 2d-5.
Then, the total amount of coins (dimes and quarters) together, will be:
The first part is the amount of dimes.
And the second part is, as we determined, the amount of quarters.
Therefore, our answer is D.
