We are given the equation:
6x−5=10x+15
Step 1: Move all xxx-terms to one side
Subtract 6x from both sides:
−5=10x−6x+15
Step 2: Move constants to the other side
Subtract 15 from both sides:

This problem asks us to compare the number of dimes to nickels.
If we let p be number of pennies in the bottle. Then,
Number of quarters in the bottle = 4p
Number of nickels in the bottle = 2p
Number of dimes in the bottle =7(2p)=14p
To find the number of dimes the child has than nickels, we use the ratio:
\(\frac{Dimes}{nickels} =\frac {14p}{2p}\ =\ 7\)
Thus, there are 7times as many dimes as nickels in the box.
