imlost has the correct setup for this problem:
15.15 = 1.50x + 0.50y.
There are two issues with this problem which make it impossible to answer: first, no multiple of 50 cents will ever produce 15 cents. Second, there are many unique solutions possible because 1.50 is a multiple of 0.50, so any value for x can be substituted with 3y.
