    A).05n +.10d +.25 q = 10.30

    B) d + 2 = q

    C) n = 3q

    Substituting equations B and C into A

    A).05*3q +.10 (q-2) +.25 q = 10.30

    A).15q +.1q -.2 +.25q = 10.30

    A).50q = 10.50

    21 quarters

    C) n = 3q

    C) n = 3*21

    63 nickels

    B) d + 2 = q

    d + 2 = 21

    19 dimes
