The candy distributor must use 70 kg and 30 kg of 10% fat-content chocolate and 60% fat-content chocolate respectively.

<h3>How to find the correct quantity of chocolate that should be used?</h3>

Let x be the quantity of 10% fat-content chocolate.

Fat in 10% fat-content chocolate + Fat in 60% fat-content chocolate = Total fat in 25% fat-content chocolate

0.10x + 0.60(100 - x) = 0.25*100

10x + 60*100 - 60x = 25*100

-50x = 25*100 - 60*100

-50x = 100(25 - 60)

50x = 3500

x = 3500/50

x = 70 kg

This is the quantity of 10% fat-content chocolate required.

100 - x = 30 kg

This is the quantity of 60% fat-content chocolate required.

Therefore, we have found that the candy distributor must use 70 kg and 30 kg of 10% fat-content chocolate and 60% fat-content chocolate respectively.

Mark uses 19 gallons of gas while traveling 399
Ket [755]

Answer:

189

Step-by-step explanation:

If mark uses 19 gallons to travel 399 miles, that means he was able to travel 21 miles per gallon.

We get this by taking 399 divided by 19.

So if mark travels on 9 gallons of gas and goes 21 miles per gallon, he will have traveled 189 miles.

We get this by taking 21 times 9

When solving the system x + 2y = 9 and x - y = 6 by substitution, what can be substituted for x in the second equation?
bazaltina [42]
X+2y = 9 ---------eq.1
x-y =6 ----------- eq.2

x = 9 -2y (from eq. 1)

Now substitute the value of x in the second eq.2

9-2y-y =6
-3y = -3
y =1

So,
x +2 (1)= 9
x= 7
