A charity organization is collecting change to raise money. They have collected three times as many dimes as quarters, 11 more nickels than dimes, and 2 times as many pennies as nickels.

Let x represent the number of quarters. Write an expression to represent the number of dimes.

a. X Quarters.

b. 2x Dimes.
(2x+22) Nickels.
3(2x+22) Pennies.

c. X + 2x +(2x+22) + 3(2x+22)=2134.
X + 2x + 2x + 22 + 6x + 66 = 2134
11x + 88 = 2134
11x = 2046

X = 186 Quarters.
2x = 2*186 = 372 Dimes.
2x+22 = 372 + 22 = 394 Nickels.
3(2x+22) = 3 * 394 = 1182 Pennies.

No... that is absolutely wrong.

p = 2n
n = d+11
d = 3x
n = 3x+11
p = 2(3x+11) = 6x+22
p+n+d+x = 4453
6x+22 + 3x+11 + 3x + x = 4453
13x + 33 = 4453
13x = 4420
x = 340
So, we have
340 quarters
1020 dimes
1031 nickels
2062 pennies
check: 340+1020+1031+2062 = 4453
