Question

Demond has eight bills in his wallet that are worth a total of $50. the bills are either $ 5 bills or $10 bills. How many $5 bills does desmond have?

Answer 1

It could be any order for this one.@Luis Rivera if you divide by 10 that would be 1 5 dollar bill but the question isn't asking to divide by ten. :P

Answer 2

So, r u saying its 1

Answer 3

x+y=8
5x+10y=50

Answer 4

I think that it would be 1 five dollar bill but I'm not really positive on that because it could be in any order :P

Answer 5

@benice where did the 8 come from?

Answer 6

you have eight bills made of x number of 5s and y number of tens

Answer 7

x+y=8
5x+10y=50

hmm....how would you solve that? O.o

Answer 8

x=6 y=2

Answer 9

Huh?

Answer 10

I think benice is right. the other one would be a little confusing :P

Answer 11

x+y=8
5x+10y=50
x=6 and y=2

x is 5 dollar bills
y is 10 dollar bills

Answer 12

nope thats not right...
Check: 5(5) + 10(10) = 50 thats not right :P
25+100 doesnt equal 50 so this problem is confusing as butternots..O.o

Answer 13

no wait thats right lol never mind I checked wrong!

Answer 14

what is the number

Answer 15

so there are 6 Five dollar bills and 2 Ten dollar bills

Answer 16

10+10+5+5+5+5+5+5=50

Answer 17

just one number

Answer 18

Omg! Just get this:
x+y=8
5x+10y=50
x=6 and y=2

x is 5 dollar bills
y is 10 dollar bills

Answer 21

Alright so put 6. because thats how many five dollar bills there would be.

Answer 22

Dude @Luis Rivera it could be MANY different combinations but due to that equation shown by @benice it makes things easier for her. More equations will confuse her more, the answer is 6. and she's done come on now :P
