Answer:

19  dimes and  15  quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets substitute in the equation

565=10x+25(34-x)

565=10x+850-25x

15x=285

x=19

So...

34-19=15

19 dimes and 15 quarters.
Explanation:
34=x+y
34−x=y
565=10x+25y
Substitute the first equation, so
565=10x+25(34−x)
565=10x+850−25x
15x=285
x=19 dimes
Therefore
34−19= 15 quarters
