there are nickels, dimes, and quarters. He has a total of $4 in quarters and dimes. Write an equation for how much money connor has in change, where y is the total amount of money in dollars and x is the number of nickels he has. If connor has $12 in change, how many nickels does he have?

ok

a nickel is 5c

a dime is 10c and a quarter is 25c    

I had to look that up - we are not all from the USA you know!

(I got it wrong last time so I thought I better check LOL)

x nickels

 

y=4.00+0.05x

 

12=4+0.05x

8=0.05x

8/0.05=x

x=160

160 nickels
