Question

Nita has $13.55 in quarters (25 cents) and dimes (10 cents). The number of quarters she has is 10

more than 3 times the number of dimes she has.
Which system of equations correctly represents this situation where q is the number of quarters Nita
has and d is the number of dimes she has?

{
0.25q+0.10d = 13.55
d = 3q + 10
25g + 10d = 13.55
d = 3q + 10
25q + 10d = 13.55
q=3d + 10
0.25q+0.10d = 13.55
q=3d + 10

Answer 1

4th answer

Explanation:

Each quarter is 0.25 dollars, and there are q of them.

Each dime is worth 0.10 dollars, and there are d of them.

In total, they are worth 13.55 dollars

So 0.25q+0.10d=13.55 is your first equation

The it says q is 10 more than 3 times d.

So q=3d+10
