In the student's equation, there are many problems. Nickels are worth 5 cents, represented by .05, not 50 dollars. Also, the coeffient 5 should not be placed there, it belongs with 5(.1), as we already know how many dimes there are. If we were able to make a new one, it would be, 5(.1)+.05n=1.20.

What is the solution to the system of two equations shown?

<h3>What is a system of linear equations?</h3>

A system of linear equations can be defined as a number of equations needed to solve the equations. For n number of variables n number of equations are required.

The given system of equations is as,

y = 4x + 16                   (1)

y = −2x − 2                  (2)

In order to solve them, substitute equation (2) into (1) as follows,

4x + 16 = −2x − 2

=> 4x + 2x = -2 - 16

=> 6x = -18

=> x  = -3

Then, y = -2 × -3 - 2 = 4

Hence, the solution of the given system of equation is x = -3 and y = 4.
