Let's set up some simultaneous equations. Let the number of nickels be n, and the number of quarters be q. Now I'm from England so I had to look up the value of a nickel (I could guess the quarter though to be 25c), but apparently it's 5c
Okay we know that the total value of the coins is 150. This gives:
25q + 5n = 150
Rearranging to make n the subject:
n = 30 - 5q
Next, we use the second statement:
n = 2q - 5
Substituting this into the first equation:
2q - 5 = 30 - 5q
7q = 35
q = 5
Putting this value for q into the first equation:
n = 30 - 5(5) = 5
Hence he has 5 of each coin. I hope this helps :)

Answer:
2 root 15
Step-by-step explanation:
2 squared + x squared= 8 squared
4+ x squared= 64
xsquared =60
square root of sixty = 2 root 15
Multiply the equation x+y =4 by -5
The resultant would be-
-5x -5y = -20
Adding this with 5x +2y =8
Then, the resulting would be,
-3y = -12
∴ y=4
and x=4-4 =0
