    One solution is x = 1 and y = 443 because

    0.10 (1) + 0.05 (443) = 22.25.

    So, (1, 443) is a solution.

    Since, 1 dime = 2 nickels,

    Increment of 1 in x-value = Decrease of 2 in y-value.

    Therefore, the set of possible solutions are { (1, 443), (2, 441), (3, 439), (4, 437), ... (222, 1) }
