Question 9 • AL-Algebra I with Probability Critical Standards

Anatoliy has a combination of 104 nickels and quarters totaling $22. Which system of linear equations can be used to find the number of nickels, n, and the number of quarters, q, Anatoliy has?

Answer
A
n + q = 22 0.05n + 0.25q = 104
B
n + q = 104 5n + 25q = 22
C
n + q = 104 0.05n + 0.25q = 22
D
n + q = 22 5n + 25q = 104

Explanation

The total number of coins is 104, so n + q = 104. A nickel is worth $0.05 and a quarter is worth $0.25, and together they total $22, so 0.05n + 0.25q = 22. These equations match choice C.
