7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number = x

3x + 9 = 2x - 6 Looks like you are going to get something negative here.

Subtract 2x from both sides.

3x - 2x + 9 = 2x - 2x - 6

x + 9 = -6

Subtract 9 from both sides.

x + 9 - 9 = - 6 - 9

Combine

x = - 15

Answer:

12 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let q represent the number of quarters. Then the number of dimes is 16-q and the total value is ...

0.25q +0.10(16 -q) = 2.20

0.15q +1.60 = 2.20 . . . . . . . simplify

0.15q = 0.60 . . . . . . . . subtract 1.60

q = 4 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.15

16-q = 12

There are 12 dimes in the collection.
