Write a System of Equations to Describe the Problem Situation $x + y = 58,0.25 x + 0.10 y = 3.10$

question 42

Multiple Choice

Write a system of equations to describe the problem situation. It is not necessary to solve the problem. Martina has 58 nickels and dimes. She has $3.10 altogether. She has x nickels and y dimes.

• A) y = 58 - x, 0.05x + 0.10y = 3.10
• B) x + y = 58, 0.05y + 0.10x = 3.10
• C) \(x + y = 58,0.25 x + 0.10 y = 3.10\)
• D) x - y = 58, 0.05x + 0.10y = 3.10
• E) \(x - y = 58,0.05 y + 0.25 x = 3.10\)
