Answer:

73 dimes and 133 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

$13.95 = 1395 cents

5n + 10d = 1395     (since each nickel is 5 cents and each dime is 10 cents)

5n = 1395 - 10d      (subtract 10d from both sides to solve for n)

n = 279 - 2d

n + d = 206

279 - 2d + d = 206   (substitute n with the previous expression)

279 - d = 206         (add variable d and -2d)

-d = -73        (solve for d and divide both sides by negative 1)

d = 73          

n + 73 = 206 (solve for n and subtract both sides by 73)  

n = 133
