X = The # of $10 bills.
3X = the # of $5. bills.
3x+30 = The # of $1 bills.
10x + 5*3x + 1*(3x+30) = 170
10x + 15x + 3x + 30 = 170
28x = 140
X = 5-$10 bills.
3x = 3*5 = 15-$5 bills.
3x+30 = 3*5 + 30 = 45-$1 bills.
3X = the # of $5. bills.
3x+30 = The # of $1 bills.
10x + 5*3x + 1*(3x+30) = 170
10x + 15x + 3x + 30 = 170
28x = 140
X = 5-$10 bills.
3x = 3*5 = 15-$5 bills.
3x+30 = 3*5 + 30 = 45-$1 bills.
