Mrs. Bailey has equal numbers of nickels and quarters but the value of the quarters is $1.80 more than the value of the nickels. What is the total value of all coins together in dollars and cents

Respuesta :

Total value of all coins together is $2.7

Linear equations are equations having variables with power 1. ax+b = 0 is an example with one variable where x is the variable, a and b are real numbers.

1 Nickel = $0.05 and 1 quarter = $0.25.

Let number of nickels and number of quarter be x.

According to the situation

x.(0.25) = $1.80 + x.($0.05)

x(0.25 - 0.05) = $1.80

x (0.2) = $1.80

x = $1.80/0.2

x = 9 coins

Therefore total value of the currency is 9(0.05 + $0.25) = 9 (0.3) = $2.7

Thus total value of all coins together is $2.7.
