Ivan has $8.75 in nickels and quarters in his desk drawer. the number of nickels is twice the number of quarters. how many coins of each type does he have?

When Ivan divides his coins into groups of 2 nickels and 1 quarter, worth $0.35, he find that he has $8.75/$0.35 = 25 such groups.

Ivan has 25 quarters and 50 nickels.

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )
