Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Number of small candles = 12
Number of large candles = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Total candles = 28
x + y = 28 ---------------(I)
Cost of 'x' small candles = 4 *x = 4x
Cost of 'y' large candles = 6 *y = 6y
Total amount = $144
4x + 6y = 144 -------------(II)
Multiply equation (I) by (-4) and then add the equation. So, x will be eliminated and we can find the value of 'y'
(I) * (-4) -4x - 4y = -112
(II) <u> 4x + 6y = 144</u> {Now, add}
2y = 32
y = 32/2
y = 16
Plug in y = 16 in equation (I)
x + 16 = 28
x = 28 - 16
x = 12

Try, please, this:
1) Imagine, that pharmacist used 'x' gr. of 40% solution and 'y' of 70% solution.
Together (20 gr. of 52% sol.) it will be x+y=20.
2) From other side, the pharmacist combined 40x and 70y gramms, after obtaining together it is 52(x+y) gramms. In other words 40x+70y=52(x+y)
3)

Answer: 8 gr. of 70% solution and 12 gr. of 40%.
