Answer:

Quantity (lbs) of type 1 candy  x = 8

Quantity (lbs) of type 2 candy  y = 17,5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let´s call  "x" quantity (in pounds) of candy type 1 in the mixture, and "y" quantity (in pounds ) of candy type 2, then according to the problem statement.

x  +  y  =  25,5

2,20*x  +  7,30*y = 5,70 * 25,5   ⇒  2,20*x  +  7,30*y = 145,35

Then we have a two equation system

x  +  y  =  25,5                                   ⇒   y = 25,5 - x

2,20*x  +  7,30*y = 145,35               ⇒ 2,20*x + 7,30* (25,5 - x ) = 145,35

2,20*x + 186,15 - 7,30*x = 145,35

5,1*x  = 40,8

x = 40,8/5,1

x = 8 lbs

And   y  =  25,5 - 8

y = 17,5 lbs

6a+(8b+2a)=6a+(2a+8b)=0 <br><br>please help me solve this
solniwko [45]
<span>Simplifying (6a + -8b)(6a + 8b) = 0 Multiply (6a + -8b) * (6a + 8b) (6a * (6a + 8b) + -8b * (6a + 8b)) = 0 ((6a * 6a + 8b * 6a) + -8b * (6a + 8b)) = 0 Reorder the terms: ((48ab + 36a2) + -8b * (6a + 8b)) = 0 ((48ab + 36a2) + -8b * (6a + 8b)) = 0 (48ab + 36a2 + (6a * -8b + 8b * -8b)) = 0 (48ab + 36a2 + (-48ab + -64b2)) = 0 Reorder the terms: (48ab + -48ab + 36a2 + -64b2) = 0 Combine like terms: 48ab + -48ab = 0 (0 + 36a2 + -64b2) = 0 (36a2 + -64b2) = 0 Solving 36a2 + -64b2 = 0 Solving for variable 'a'. Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '64b2' to each side of the equation. 36a2 + -64b2 + 64b2 = 0 + 64b2 Combine like terms: -64b2 + 64b2 = 0 36a2 + 0 = 0 + 64b2 36a2 = 0 + 64b2 Remove the zero: 36a2 = 64b2 Divide each side by '36'. a2 = 1.777777778b2 Simplifying a2 = 1.777777778b2 Take the square root of each side: a = {-1.333333333b, 1.333333333b}</span>
