Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- Let (applicable to all three lines below)
- Hard candy = x kg with price $1.60/kg
- Gummy worms = y kg with price $2.20/kg
- Total weight = 50 kg with mixed price $1.75/kg
<u>Required equations:</u>
- x + y = 50 total weight
- 1.60x + 2.20y = 50*1.75 total price
=========================================
<u><em>Note</em></u><em>. It says don't solve but the solution below for those who is interested to know the answer.</em>
<u>Simplify the second equation and solve by substitution x = 50 - y:</u>
- 1.6(50 - y) + 2.2y = 87.5
- 80 - 1.6y +2.2y = 87.5
- 0.6y = 7.5
- y = 7.5/0.6
- y = 12.5
<u>Find the value of x:</u>
<u>Hard candy</u> = 37.5 kg and <u>gummy worms</u> = 12.5 kg

Your answer is 250,000. There are two ways to do this problem.
1) Solve 500/4 to find out how many sheets of paper you get per every dollar. — Your answer is 125 sheets for $1. Then you multiply that answer by 2000, and get 250,000. Which means you get 250,000 sheets of paper for $2000.
2) You can divide 2000 by 4 & that gets you 500, you can then multiply that by 500 & you will get 250,000.
Hope this helps.
