X=quarters, y=dimes
7+2x=y
0.25x+0.1y=10.15
we substitute the first equation into the second equation
0.25x+0.1(7+2x)=10.15
0.25x+0.7+0.2x=10.15
0.45x+0.7-0.7=10.15-0.7
0.45x=9.45
0.45x/0.45=9.45/0.45
x=21 quarters
7+2x=y, x=21
7+2(21)=y
7+42=y
y=49 dimes
check: 0.25x+0.1y=10.15 when x=21, y=49
21(0.25)=5.25 in quarters
49(0.1)=4.90 in dimes
5.25+4.90=10.15
Answer: $3.53
Step-by-step explanation: 15 percent off can be thought of as 85% of the original value because 100-15 is 85. this means that if x is the value of the original shirt, .85x=3
divide by .85
x=3.5294
which is about $3.53
Without a picture, it would be three linear pairs but to be more exact I would need a picture
hope this helps
