Help?

Cindy had $1.08 using 9 coins.

She had as many pennies as dimes.

There must be 4 pennies as 9 pennies would not allow for any other coins.

Since there are supposed to be as many dimes as there are pennies, 4P + 4D = 44 cents.

That leaves 65 cents to come from 1 coin which is impossible so there cannot be as many dimes as pennies.

10D + 9P = $1.09 but 19 coins

1Q + 8D + 4P = $1.09 but 13 coins

2Q + 5D + 4P = $1.09 but 11 coins

3Q + 3 D + 4P = $1.09 but 10 coins

3Q + 2D + 2N + 4P = $1.09 but 11 coins

Halves must be involved

1H leaves 59 cents from 8 coins

Must have 4 pennies

1H + 4P leaves 55 cents from 4 coins

1H + 2Q + 1N + 4P = $1.09 but 8 coins

1H + 1 Q + 3D + 4P = $1.09 and 9 coins

Hooray!!!

Danielle had 96 cents, using ten coins.

She has the same number of nickels as all the other coins put together.

Based on our prior experience, it is rather easy to zero in on
1Q + 4D + 6N + 1P = 96 cents in 12 coins
where 6N = 1Q + 4D + 1P coins

OOPS - The hand was quicker than the eye. Lets try a more exact method.
Assuming no halves are involved.

1--25Q + 10CD + 5N + 1P = 96
2--Q + D + N + P = 10
3--N = Q + D + P
4--Substituting (3) into (1) yields 30Q + 15D + 6P = 96
5--Sustituting (3) into (2) yields Q + D + P = 5
6--Multiplying (5) by 6 yields 6Q + 6D + 6P = 30
7--Subtracting (6) from (4) yields 8Q + 3D = 22
8--Dividing through by the lowest coefficient yields 2Q + 2Q/3 = 1 + 3/7
9--(2Q - 1)/3 must be an integer as does (4Q - 2)/3
10--Dividing by 3 again yields Q + Q/3 - 2/3
11--(Q - 2)/3 is an integer k making Q = 3k + 2
12--Substituting back into (7( yields D = 2 - 8k
13--Clearly, k must be 0.
14--For k = 0, Q = 2 and D = 2.
15--From (5), P = 1 and hence, N = 4.
16--Thus we have Q = 2, D = 2, N = 5 and P = 1 and 2Q's + 2D's + 1P = 5N as coins go.
17--Also, 25(2) + 10(2) + 5(5) + 1(1) = 96 cents.

At last.!!!

Cindy has 1 half dollar,1quater,3 dimes,1 nickel,and 3 penny's.

To solve these problems, we can use a system of equations to represent the given information and find the unknowns. Let's tackle each problem separately.

1. Cindy's problem:
Let's represent the number of pennies and dimes with the variables 'p' and 'd', respectively.
Since Cindy had a total of 9 coins, we can form the equation p + d = 9. (Equation 1)
The value of her coins is $1.08, which can be written as 0.01p + 0.10d = 1.08. (Equation 2)
Finally, we know that she had the same number of pennies as dimes, so p = d. (Equation 3)

To solve this system of equations, we can substitute Equation 3 into Equation 1 and Equation 2.
Substituting p = d into Equation 1, we get d + d = 9, which simplifies to 2d = 9. Solving for d, we find d = 4.5.
Since coins cannot be fractions, we know that d must be a whole number. However, since it's not possible for Cindy to have 4.5 dimes, we can conclude that this system of equations has no solution.

2. Danielle's problem:
Let's represent the number of half dollars, quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies with the variables 'h', 'q', 'd', 'n', and 'p', respectively.
Since Danielle had a total of 96 coins, we can form the equation h + q + d + n + p = 96. (Equation 4)
We also know that she had the same number of nickels as all the other coins combined, so n = h + q + d + p. (Equation 5)

To solve this system of equations, we can substitute Equation 5 into Equation 4.
Substituting n = h + q + d + p into Equation 4, we get h + q + d + (h + q + d + p) + p = 96, which simplifies to 2h + 2q + 2d + 2p = 96.
Dividing both sides of the equation by 2, we have h + q + d + p = 48. (Equation 6)

Now, we have a new system of equations:
Equation 4: h + q + d + n + p = 96
Equation 6: h + q + d + p = 48

To further solve this, we need additional information or another equation to directly solve for the values of h, q, d, n, and p. Without that information, this system of equations has no unique solution either.

In both cases, it appears that there is missing information or inconsistencies in the given problems.
