I need the equations only.

A pile of 22 coins consist of nickels and dimes. The total value of the coins is $1.20. Find the number of each type of coin.

20 nickels 2 dimes because 5 times 20 is 100 plus 2 times 10 is 120

.05N+.1D=1.20
N+D= 22

N is Nickels and D is Dimes.

You said you only needed the equations, but if you'd like help on solving the equations, feel free to message me!

Hope this helps!
