So Monday, she recieved 3 quarters and 2 pennies. We know that each quarter is equal to 25 cents, so if we have 3*25 cents, that makes 75 cents. Each penny equals 1 cent, so 2 pennies makes 2 cents. We add 2 cents to 75 cents to get 77 cents on Monday. Tuesday she got 2 dimes and 1 nickel. We know that each dime is equal to 10 cents, so 2 dimes * 10 cents equals 20 cents. Nickels are worth 5 cents. 1 nickel is equal to 5 cents. We add 5 cents to 20 cents to get 25 cents on Tuesday. In total, she received 1 dollar and 2 cents.

Marie has a weekly budget of $24 to spend on magazines and pies. The equation to represent her spending is mx + py = 24, where m is the cost of magazines and p is the cost of pies. By knowing the prices of each, we can find different combinations of how many she can buy without exceeding her budget.
