James has eight coins in his pocket. all the coins are either dimes or quarters. the total value of the coins is $1.25. how many of each type of coin is in james’s pocket?

(hint: let d stand for the number of dimes, and let q stand for the number of quarters. remember that one quarter equals $0.25 and one dime equals $0.10.)

he has 5d+3q

Step-by-step explanation:

since every d is .10 and every q is .25 the equation can be changed to 5(.10)+3(.25) which is equal to .5+.75 which adds up to 1.25

i did this by assuming that the amount of d is 8 at first, then change one of the 8 d to a q which will give you 7d+q, then assume another d is a q which will give you 6d+2q, repeat this until the amount of d and q add up to 1.25
