    See below.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let d = number of dimes. Let q = number of quarters.

    d + q = 35

    A dime is worth 10 cents, or $0.1; d dimes are worth 0.1d.

    A quarter is worth 25 cents, or $0.25; q quarters are worth 0.25q.

    0.1d + 0.25q = 4.9

    The system of equation is

    d + q = 35

    0.1d + 0.25q = 4.9
