Answer:

210 orange candles

280 blue candles

Step-by-step explanation:

x = blue candles

y = orange candles

y = 0.75x

x + y = 490

x + 0.75x = 490

1.75x = 490

x = 280

280 + y = 490

y = 210

Answer:

xy = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression to be evaluated is:

$2\cdot x +4\cdot x + 8\cdot y + 16\cdot y = 42$

$6\cdot x + 24\cdot y = 42$

By some algebraic handling:

$6\cdot (x + 4\cdot y) = 42$

Where:

$x+4\cdot y = 7$

There is one possible solution:

x = 3, y = 1

And consequently,

xy = 3
