Ashley has five more than twice the amount of nickels as quarters, with a total value of $3.05. How many coins of each kind does she have. Define your variables and solve using a system of linear equations.

q = quarters

n = nickels =   2q+ 5

 

25 q    +   5(2q+5) = 305

35q = 280

q =  8     n = 21
