Answer:
9 bottles of soda and 7 bottles of juice
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of bottles of soda purchased and y be the number of bottles of juice purchased.
1. Gabriel purchased 2 more bottles of soda than bottles of juice, then
2. Each bottle of soda has 35 grams of sugar, then there are 35x g of sugar in x bottles of soda.
Each bottle of juice has 10 grams of sugar, then there are 10y g of sugar in y bottles of juice.
In total, there are 35x+10y g of sugar.
All bottles collectively contain 385 grams of sugar, thus
3. Solve the system of two equations:
Substitute the first equation into the second equation:
Answer:
Ф =
Step-by-step explanation:
It is a bit difficult to input the work here, so I uploaded an image
- First we can use the trig identities to change sec²(Ф) to tan²(Ф) + 1
- Then we can combine like terms
- Then we can factor this as a polynomial function
- Then we can set each term equal to zero and solve for Ф
- The first term tan(Ф) - 2 = 0 has no solution because tan(Ф) ≠ -2 anywhere
- The second term tan(Ф) - 1 = 0 has two solutions of
and
so these are the solutions to the problem
