She has 27 quarters and 73 dimes.
Write a system of equations.
Let x be the number of quarters, and y be the number of dimes.
x+y=100
0.25x+0.10y=14.05
Solve by substitution:y=100−x
∴0.25x + 0.10(100 - x) = 14.05
0.25x+10−0.10x=14.05
0.15x+10=14.05
0.15x=4.05
x=27
Solve for y now:
y+27=100
y=100−27
y=73
Hence, She has 27 quarters and 73 dimes.
A mathematical equation is a formula that uses the equals sign to represent the equality of two expressions. The meanings of the word equation and its cognates in various languages can vary slightly. For instance, in French, an equation is defined as having one or more variables, whereas, in English, an equation is any well-formed formula that consists of two expressions linked by the equals sign.
Finding the values of the variables that cause the equality to hold true is the first step in solving an equation with variables. The unknown variables are also known as the variables for which the equation must be solved, and the unknown variable values that fulfill the equality are known as the equation's solutions. Equations come in two varieties: identities and conditional equations.

If an is a5
and
an-1 is a4
then using your recursive formula for an arithmetic sequence
an=an-1 +d
then
a5=a4+d
now, a4 =6 and common difference "d" is d=-11
hence
a5=6 -11
6-11= -5
any questions?
Well obviously quarters equal 25 cents. So you have to divide the 8.85 by 25 first. That means he could have 35 quarters. That least the rest as being dimes. So find the remaining amount of the 8.85. If you have 35 quarters that's $8.75. And 8.85 minus 8.75 is 10 cents. which would be 2 nickels. That only adds up 37 coins. So you break down one of the 25. That would mean 5 more coins could be nickels. Add 37 and 5 to get 42. Do it again. 25 cents in nickels would be 5 more coins. would be 46. that would be missing 2 coins. But don't forget you're also subtracting from the 35 quarters. Now you would technically have 12 nickels and 33 quarters. So you can do it one more time. 32 quarters means there is $8 in quarters at this point.
Now add you have 12 nickels, and you made 5 more. That's 17 nickels. That equals 85 cents. So add 17 and 32 to be sure you have 49 coins, which you do.
So 17 nickels, 32 quarters to equal 49 coins and $8.85
(sorry some of it got mixed up above because I was forgetting to subtract the quarters from the total as I changed them to nickels, so pay attention to the end)
