56 coins = $9.80. how many are quarters how many are nickels

So there are 35 quarters and 21 nickels.

Step-by-step explanation:

So I guess that is all we have is quarters and nickels.

Quarters are worth .25

Nickels are worth .05

Let x represent the number of quarters

Let y represent the number of nickels

x+y=56

.25x+.05y=9.8

We are going to solve this system.

I'm going to use substitution. I will solve the first equation for y and then plug that into the second equation.

y=56-x  

.25x+.05(56-x)=9.8

.25x+2.8-.05x=9.8

.20x+2.8=9.8

.2x          = 7

 x=7/(.2) or 7*5=35

y=56-x

y=56-35=21

So there are 35 quarters and 21 nickels.

A) n + q = 56

B) .05n + .25q = 9.80

We multiply A) by -.25

A) -.25n -.25q = -14  then add it to equation B)

B) .05n + .25q = 9.80

-.2n = -4.20

nickels = 4.20 / .20 = 21

quarters = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

a line is an defined derm because it

a)contains an infinite number of points b) can be used to create other geometric shapes c)describes something that does not have width or depth d) is a term that does not have a formal definition. a line is an undefined term because it: contains an infinite number of points.
