    Quarter is $0.25

    Dollar is just $1

    x is amount of quarters

    y is amount of dollar coins

    Two equations we know

    0.25x+1y=10.75 and

    x+y=22

    solve both for y

    0.25x+1y=10.75

    y=10.75-0.25x

    x+y=22

    y=22-x

    set them equal

    22-x = (y) = 10.75-0.25x

    11.25=0.75x

    x=15 quarters

    then put x=15 into either equation and now solve for y

    x+y=22

    15+y=22

    y=7 dollar coins
