$1,040 is how much you would have remaining at the end if that's what you are looking for.
Remember you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides
5c+16.5=13.5+10c
minus 5c both sides
16.5=13.5+5c
minus 13.5 from both sides
3=5c
divide both sides by 5
3/5=c
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
50 * .30=15
Equation 1. N+D=500
equation 2 5N+10D=3000
This is for equation 1
N=500-d
Substitute into equations 2 and solve for D
5N+10D=3000
5(500-D)+10D=3000
2500-5D+10D=3000
5D=500
D=100
Lets go back the equation 1
N=500-D
N=500-100
N=400
there are 400 Nickles and 100 Dimes
