You have 17 coins in pennies, nickels, and dimes in
your pocket. the value of the coins is $0.47. there are four times the number of pennies as nickels. how many
of each type of coin do you have?

There are 3 nickels , 2 dimes and 12 pennies

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. of nickels be x

Now we are given that  There are four times the number of pennies as nickels

So, No. of pennies = 4x

Let the no. of dimes be y

Now we are given that there are 17 coins

So,

----A

Value of 1 nickel = $0.05.

value of x nickels = 0.05x

Value of 1 penny = $0.01.

Value of 4x pennies = 0.04 x

Value of 1 dime = $0.10

Value of y dimes= $0.10y

The value of the 17 coins is $0.47.

So,

--- B

Substitute the value of y from A in B

Substitute the value of x in 1

So, no. of nickles =x= 3

No. of pennies = 4x = 4(3)=12

No. of dimes = y = 2

Hence there are 3 nickels , 2 dimes and 12 pennies
