  73. TRAVEL Yoko is going with the Spanish Club to Costa Rica. She buys 10 traveler’s checks in denominations of $20, $50, and $100, totaling $370. She has twice as many $20 checks as $50 checks. How many of each denomination of traveler’s checks does she have?

  SOLUTION:   Let x, y, and z represent the number of $20, $50, and $100 checks respectively.

  So: x + y + z = 10

  And: 20x + 50y + 100z = 370

 

 

ANSWER:   2

Also: x = 2y

 

5x – 28x – 12 = 0

Solve the equations.

 

  x = 6, y = 3, and z = 1.

 

72. 

 

Therefore, Yoko has 1-$100, 3-$50, and 6-$20 checks.

SOLUTION:  

  ANSWER:   1 $100, 3 $50, and 6 $20 checks
