Answer:

C, 5x + 10y = 85

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 5 cents in a nickel, so that will be 5x because x will be the number of nickels as said earlier and 5 will be the nickel.

There is 10 cents in a dime, so that will be 10y because y will be the number of dimes used as mentioned, and 10 will be the dime.

Both of those added, (5x + 10) will have a result of 85.

That's why 5x + 10y = 85 would best be the appropriate equation to use here.
