nickles are 5cent (.o5 of $1) dimes are .1 of a dollar. this shows the addition in dollars of both values. 

Answer 2

Answer:

$0.05n+0.10d$

Thus, the cost of n nickel in dollars = 0.05n,

While, the cost of d dimes in dollars = 0.10d

Hence, the total value of n nickels and d dimes in dollars

$=0.05n+0.10d$
