2.5 divided by 2 equals 1.25 so each side equals 1.25
D + q = 32....d = 32 - q
0.10d + 0.25q = 6.50
0.10(32 - q) + 0.25q = 6.50
3.20 - 0.10q + 0.25q = 6.50
-0.10q + 0.25q = 6.50 - 3.20
0.15q = 3.30
q = 3.30 / 0.15
q = 22 <=== 22 quarters
d + q = 32
d + 22= 32
d = 32 - 22
d = 10 <=== 10 dimes
1. set up the equation which makes these shapes equal, 1/2(2(x+1)) = 1x
2. solve, x+1=x, 1=0
3. since this is impossible, there is no solution and zero answers
Answer: x = -2
