f = # of five dollar bills
t = # of ten dollar bills

f = t + 25
5f + 10t = 200

substitute what f = into the second equation.

5(t + 25) + 10t = 200
5t + 125 + 10t = 200
15t + 125 = 200
15t = 75
t = 5
f = t + 25   so    f = 5 + 25    so    f = 30

5  ten dollar bills
30 five dollar bills
