Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

We will let d represent the amount of dimes Angela has.

Angel has 5 fewer quarters than twice the number of dimes.

Twice the number of dimes will be 2d.

Then, 5 fewer will yield 2d-5.

Therefore, the amount of quarters Angela has is 2d-5.

Then, the total amount of coins (dimes and quarters) together, will be:

[tex]d+(2d-5)[/tex]

The first part is the amount of dimes.

And the second part is, as we determined, the amount of quarters.

Therefore, our answer is D.
