Multiply 2,500 by 1.50 which is B.
Answer:
<h2>36.14 pounds of 34% copper alloy and 9.86 pounds of 48% copper alloy</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
First alloy contains 34% copper and the second alloy contains 48% alloy.
We wish to make 46 pounds of a third alloy containing 37% copper.
Let the weight of first alloy used be
in pounds and the weight of second alloy used be
in pounds.
Total weight =

Total weight of copper = 

Subtracting 34 times first equation from second equation,

∴ 36.14 pounds of first alloy and 9.86 pounds of second alloy were used.
If a function is defined as

where both
are continuous functions, then
is also continuous where defined, i.e. where 
So, in your case, this function is continous everywhere, except where

To solve this equation, we can use the formula 
It means that, if the leading terms is 1, then the x coefficient is the opposite of the sum of the roots, and the constant term is the product of the roots.
So, we're looking for two terms whose sum is 7, and whose product is 12. These numbers are easily found to be 3 and 4.
So, this function is continuous for every real number different than 3 or 4.
