From 1967 until 1999, Canadian 10¢ and 25¢ coins were made of pure nickel which has a density of 8.902 g/cm3. Suppose each dime weighed 2.00 g and each quarter weighed 5.00 g. A small collection of dimes and quarters were submerged in 10.00 mL of water in a graduated cylinder causing the water level to rise to the 15.28 mL mark. What was the combined monetary value (in Can$) of those coins? Note that there is a special relationship between the masses of the two types of coins and their monetary values.
