Adalberto\nhas $2.25 in dimes and nickels in his pocket. He has nine\nmore nickels than dimes. How many of each type of coin does he have?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A Complete Solution to Consider<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Step\n1. Read<\/strong> the problem. Make sure you understand all the words and ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Think\nabout the strategies you have used before. The first thing you need is to\nnotice what types of coins are involved. Adalberto has dimes and nickels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We\ncan work this problem all in cents or in dollars. Here we will do it in dollars\nand put in the dollar sign ($) in the table as a reminder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The value of a dime is $0.10 and the value of a nickel is $0.05. The total value of all the coins is $2.25.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step\n2. Identify<\/strong> what you are looking for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step\n3. Name<\/strong> what you are looking for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In this problem you cannot count each type of coin\u2014that is what you are looking for\u2014but you have a clue. There are nine more nickels than dimes. The number of nickels is nine more than the number of dimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fill in the \u201cnumber\u201d column to help get everything organized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now\nwe have all the information we need from the problem! <\/p>\n\n\n\n You\nmultiply the number times the value to get the total value of each type of\ncoin. While you do not know the actual number, you do have an expression to\nrepresent it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And so now multiply number\u00b7value and write the results in the Total Value column.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step\n4. Translate<\/strong> into an equation. Restate the problem in one sentence. Then\ntranslate into an equation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 0.10d + 0.05(d + 9) = 2.25<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 5. Solve<\/strong> the equation using good algebra techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step\n6. Check.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Step\n7. Answer<\/strong> the question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Adalberto has twelve dimes and twenty-one nickels.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Now it’s Your Turn!! <\/strong>Liliana has $2.10 in nickels and quarters in her backpack.
