Answer:

The number of dimes  is represented by x = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The number of dimes  is represented by x

Number of quarters = 6  + 2x

Total number of coins in the bag = 276

To find x, we have:

x + 6 + 2x = 276

3x + 6 = 276

3x = 276 - 6

3x = 270

x = 270/3

x = 90
