Answer:

number of dimes = 15

number of quarters = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

total money = $2 = 200 cents

types of coins are dimes and quarters

number of dimes are 13 more than quarters

let number of dimes be x and quarters be y

so our equation =

10x + 25y = 200

x = (y+13)

10(y+13) +25y= 200

10y + 130 +25y = 200

35y + 130 = 200

y = 70/35 = 2

cross checking :

x = y+13 = 15

amount = 10x15 + 25x2 = 150 + 50 = 200 cents = $2.

determine 3 ways to have 13 more dimes than quarters:

we can use linear equations and tables to solve.
