Question

The given system of eqqations models the coins in a jar containing n nickels, d dimes, and a quarters. Which statement is

modeled by one of the equations in the system?
q- dun
0 250+ 0 100+ 0.05n-6.05
+0+-36
The number of nickels is equal to the total number of dimes and quarters
The total value of the coins in the jar is $36
There is a total of 36 coins in the jar
There is an equal number of nickels, dimes, and quarters

Answer 1

Option (3).

Explanation:

This question is incomplete; find the compete question in the attachment.

Equation (1): q = d + n

"Total number of quarters is equal to the sum of number of dimes and nickels."

Equation (2): 0.25q + 0.10d + 0.05n = 6.05

"Total value of the coins in the jar is $36"

Equation (3) : q + d + n = 36

"There are a total of 36 coins in the jar."

By comparing the options given, we find the third option which matches with equation (3)

Therefore, option (3) is the correct answer.
