Given:

Total number of bills is, N = 32.

Total cost of the bill is, C = $220.

The first type of bill contans $5 bills and second type of bill contains $10 bills in the roll.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the numer of $5 bills as x and $10 bills as y.

Then, the equation for total number of bill can be written as,


\begin{gathered} x+y=N \\ x+y=32 \\ x=32-y\text{. . . . . . . (1)} \end{gathered}

Similarly the total cost of the bill can be written as,
