Answer:

Leslie has 13 quarters and 23 half-dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can write the following equations from the information given and considering that a quarter is $0.25 and half-dollar is $0.50:

x+y=36 (1)

0.25x+0.50y=14.75 (2), where:

x=amount of quarters

y=amount of half-dollars

First, you can isolate x in (1):

x=36-y (3)

Then, you can replace (3) in (2):

0.25(36-y)+0.50y=14.75

9-0.25y+0.50y=14.75

0.25y=5.75

y=5.75/0.25

y=23

Finally, you can replace the value of y in (3) to find the value of x:

x=36-23

x=13

According to this, the answer is that Leslie has 13 quarters and 23 half-dollars.
