Answer 1

.

Answer 2

x = # of 1 dollar bills
y = # of 5 dollar bills
z = # of 10 dollar bills

1x + 5y + 10z = 118

# of one dollar bills is two more than 3 times as many fives
x = 3y + 2

# of ten dollar bills is one less than number of fives
z = y - 1

3y + 2 + 5y + 10(y - 1) = 118

3y + 5y + 10y + 2 - 10 = 118
18y - 8 = 118
18y = 126
y = 7

So 7 five dollar bills
