Answer:
14 quarters and 28 nickels
Step-by-step explanation:
System of Equations where x = number of quarters and y = number of nickels
(1) equation with value of each coin
0.25(x)+0.05(y) = 4.90
(2) total number of coins
x + y = 42
Solve system of equations using either substitution or elimination
(elimination multiplying equation 2 by -0.5)
.25(x) + 0.05(y) = 4.90
-0.05(x) - 0.05(y) = 42 * (-0.05)
(3) Resulting equation
.20(x) = 2.8
x = 14
plug x into equation 2
14 + y = 42
y = 28
There are 14 quarters and 28 nickels in Mary's collection.

Answer:
C. x = 3, y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
If both triangles are congruent by the HL Theorem, then their hypotenuse and a corresponding leg would be equal to each other.
Thus:
x + 3 = 3y (eqn. 1) => equal hypotenuse
Also,
x = y + 1 (eqn. 2) => equal legs
✔️Substitute x = y + 1 into eqn. 1 to find y.
x + 3 = 3y (eqn. 1)
(y + 1) + 3 = 3y
y + 1 + 3 = 3y
y + 4 = 3y
y + 4 - y = 3y - y
4 = 2y
Divide both sides by 2
4/2 = 2y/2
2 = y
y = 2
✔️ Substitute y = 2 into eqn. 2 to find x.
x = y + 1 (eqn. 2)
x = 2 + 1
x = 3
