Wendy had 35 coins in pennies and nickels.She had $1.03.3Which system of equations could be used to determine the number of coins she has?

A..01p +.05n = 35 B. 1p +5n = 1.03
p+ n =1.03 p + n = 35


C .01p + .05 n = 1.03 D. .05p + .01n = 1.03
p + n = 35 p + n = 35

Answer 1

Answer: c. p+n=35, 0.01p+ 0.05n = 1.03

Step-by-step explanation: p= number of pennies, n = number of nickels. Given the total number of coins is 35, we have the equation p+n = 35.

She has total of $1.03. The equation for that would be 0.01p + 0.05n = 1.03

Solve both the equations to get the answer.
