If x = # of quarters, then, the # of dimes will be equal to 2x. The total value (z) would be equal to:
z = 0.25x + 0.10(2x)
Then, since you switch the quarters and the dimes, and you have a new total, the resulting equation will be:
1.2 + z = 0.25(2x) + 0.10(x)
Plug in the values you know:
1.2 + (0.25x + 0.10(2x)) = 0.25(2x) + 0.10(x)
Solve for x:
1.2 + (0.25x + 0.20x) = 0.50x + 0.10x
1.2 + 0.45x = 0.60x
1.2 = 0.15x
x = 1.2/0.15 = 8
This means that there are 8 Quarters in her bag right now. So, the amount of dimes is just 2x which is 16. So your answer will be:
She has 8 Quarters and 16 Dimes in her bag right now. Or, $3.60.
If this doesn't make sense, then tell me. I have some resources where I got the answer from to put it into simplest terms. I have the website if you want.
Hi,
The answer is 3/2 or 4
How I got my answer:
Just think that (2x+3) OR (x-4) has to be 0.
<span>
Than you can find it out with a simple +/- calculation. </span>
<span> 2x+3=0 x-4=0
x=-3/2 or 4</span>Hope this helps you.

Step-by-step explanation:
Hello there,
From Point A to Point B Peter traveled roughly 30 miles in 30 minutes.
From Point B to Point C Peter traveled roughly 130 miles in 2 hours and 30 minutes.
From Point C he didn't move in distance but the hours moved so c is out.
From Point C to Point D, Peter traveled roughly 180 miles in 3 hours.
Therefore D Peter had the fastest interval at D.
