A candy distributor needs to mix a 30% fat-content chocolate with a 40% fat-content chocolate to create 150 kilograms of a 32% f
Ber [7]

Answer:

120 kg of 30% fat-content chocolate and 30 kg of 40% fat-content chocolate.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a candy distributor needs to mix a 30% fat-content chocolate with a 40% fat-content chocolate to create 150 kilograms of a 32% fat-content chocolate.

Let the amount of 30% fat-content chocolate be 'x' and the amount of 40% fat-content chocolate be 'y'.

So, according to the question;

x + y = 150 ------------ [equation 1]

and 30\% \text{ of } x +  40\% \text{ of } y=32\% \text{ of } 150

30x+40y= 32 \times 150

30x+40\times (150-x)= 4800

30x+6000-40x= 4800

10x = 6000-4800

x=\frac{1200}{10}

x = 120 kg

Now, putting the value of x in equation 1, we get;

x + y = 150

120 + y = 150

y = 30 kg

Hence, 120 kg of 30% fat-content chocolate and 30 kg of 40% fat-content chocolate.

mixas84 [53]

The value of x in 2^x - 2 when x = 0, x = 1 and x = 2 are -1, 0 and 2 respectively. option A

<h3>Algebra</h3>

2^x - 2

when x = 0

2^x - 2

= 2^0 - 2

= 1 - 2

= -1

when x = 1

2^x - 2

=2^1 - 2

= 2 - 2

= 0

when x = 2

2^x - 2

= 2^2 - 2

= 4 - 2

= 2
