1) with 2 unknowns(5point and 2 point coupons) you will need two equations.

2) Let F=5 cent and Let T=2 cent

3) One equation will be total coupons. F+T=23

4) The other equation will be total value. 5F+2T=76

5) F+T=23

5F+2T=76

6) solve them simultaneously or by substitution. You should have learned these methods before this problem was given to you. Answers are F=10 T=13.

7) You still need to show the work to prove that you can do it.
