X = number of dimes
x + 2 = number of nickels
3(x + 2) = number of pennies
10x + 5(x + 2) + 3(x + 2) = 52
10x + 5x + 10 + 3x + 6 = 52
18x = 36
x = 2
x = 2 (number of dimes)
x + 2 = 4 (number of nickels)
3(x + 2) = 12 (number of pennies)
Check:
2(10) = 20 cents in dimes
4(5) = 20 cents in nickels
12(1) = 12 cents in pennies
Total = 52 cents
35h x $11ph = 385, 385 x 52 = 20,020
20,020 = 15,600 = 4,420.

Answer:
$450
Step-by-step explanation:
Let R be the hourly pay rate in dollars per hour. Hannah worked 10 hours and Zach worked 9 hours for a total of $950, so we get the equation:
10R + 9R = 950
Solve for R:
19R = 950
R = 50
Zach worked for 9 hours, so the total he earned is:
9 hours * 50 dollars/hour = $450
