a = 30
a = 16
-a² + 46a -480 = 0
(-a + 30) (a -16) = 0
(-a)(a) + (-a)(-16) + 30(a) + 30(-16) = 0
-a² + 16a + 30a -480 = 0
-a² + 46a - 480 = 0
(-a + 30) = 0 ; (a - 16) = 0
-a = -30 ; a = 16
a = 30
To check:
a = 30
-(30)² + 46(30) - 480 = 0
-900 + 1380 - 480 = 0
480 - 480 = 0
0 = 0
a = 16
-(16)² + 46(16) - 480 = 0
-256 + 736 - 480 = 0
480 - 480 = 0
0 = 0
L = pounds of lollipop
c = pounds of caramel candies
0.95l + 1.10c = 30 ($0.95/lb & $1.10/lb)
l + c = 30 (mixture sells for $1/lb)
c = 30 - l
0.95l + 1.10(30 - l) = 30 (Substitution)
0.95l + 33 - 1.10l = 30
-0.15l = -3 (move terms)
l = 20lbs
Hope this helps.
