Answer 4

Let's say
x=10-dollar bills
y=5-dollar bills
So
10 dollar bills=3 * 5-dollar bills
so
x=3y
So find the total of each
you have 10-dollar bills + 5-dollar bills = $350
So
x+y=350

Answer 5

and the other equation?

Answer 6

I gave 2.
x=3y
and
x+y=350
Now you can solve.

Answer 7

Oh so x=3y
Got it

Answer 8

x=525/2
y=175/2
