WhyYou

Answer:

There are 32 dimes and 25 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

q + d = 57 or q = 57 - d  

25q + 10d = 945  

substitute first equation into second equation:  

25(57 - d) + 10d = 945  

1425 - 25d + 10d = 945  

-15d = -480  

d = -480/-15 = 32  

using first equation:  

q = 57 - 32 = 25  

check using second equation:  

25(25) + 10(32) = 945 checks
