Abag contains 18 coins consisting of quarters and dimes. the total value of the coins is $2.85. which system of equations can be used to determine the number of quarters, q, and the number of dimes, d, in the bag?

Simultaneous Equation

Step-by-step explanation:

A bag contains 18 coins consisting of quarters and dimes. The total value of the coins is $2.85. Which system of equations can be used to determine the number of quarters, q, and the number of dimes, d, in the bag?

To get the number of dimes and the number of quarters q will definitely have to be by simultaneous equation

let the number of dimes be d

let the number of quarters be q

let the cost of quarters/ one  be Q

let the cost of dime/one be  D

q+d=181

Qq+Dd=2.852

from equation 1

q=18-d

substituting the value of q into equation 2

Q(18-d)+Dd=2.85

if cost of quarters/ one  is given and the cost of dime/one is also given we can go ahead to find

q and d

20335+282=20617
