S = large shrimp and p = popcorn shrimp

s + p = 10.....multiply by -1
5s + p = 30
---------------
-s -p = -10 (result of multiplying by -1)
5s + p = 30
---------------add
4s = 20
s = 20/4
s = 5

s + p = 10
5 + p = 10
p = 10 - 5
p = 5

so there was 5 lbs of large shrimp (s) and 5 lbs of popcorn shrimp (p) in the mixture
