Answer:

Quarters: 7

Dimes: 9

Nickels: 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Bank --> 30 coins

Base Equations:

N+D+Q=30

5N+10D+25Q=335

Equation 1: 2Q=N

Equation 2: D=30-(N+Q)

                   Substitute Equation1 :  D=30-(2Q+Q)

                   D=30-3Q

0.05(2Q)+0.10(30-3Q)+0.25Q=3.35

0.10Q+3-0.3Q+0.25Q=3.35

0.5Q+3=3.35

0.5Q=0.35

Q=7

if Q=7, N= 2*Q

N=14

D=9

Check Step:

7*25=175

14*5=70

9*10=90

175+70+90=335

Correct
