Thank you Bob. I got dimes = 8.
Can you give me the correct equation? I tried 0.25(x + 3) + 0.05(x - 5) + 0.10x = 52 and got the same answer. So, what's the equation?
Thank you. I also played with this question some more and learned that y = 5x - 175 works just the same. You said the slope is 60 but 60 inches divided by 12 inches = 5 feet. I decided to use 5 for the slope. Both equations work very well.
