Super easy 10 problem: paul has a mix of quarters and dimes in his piggy bank. he has twice as many dimes than he has quarters. he counts all his coins and notices that he has $9.00 in total. how many quarters does paul have?

q - number of quarters

2q - number of dimes

2q · $0.10 - Amount in dimes

q · $0.25 - Amount in quarters

$9.00 - Total amount

The equation:

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
