Devon has been saving $5 & $10 for the past four years. Over spring break he wanted to see how much money he has saved up. After counting the money he calculated that he has a total of $395 & had 49 bills. Based on this information, how many $5 & $10 bills does he have?

Respuesta :

Answer:

19 five dollar bills

30 ten dollar bills

Step-by-step explanation:

x=number of $5 bills

y=number of $10 bills

x+y=49

x=49-y

5x+10y=395

substitute for x

5(49-y)+10y=395

245-5y+10y=395

245+5y-245=395-245

5y=150

5y/5=150/5

y=30

x=49-30=19
