This shows that about 7 and 3 pounds of each chocolate were included in the mixture.

Let the number of pounds of both chocolates be x and y.

If Enrico sold a 10-pound box of assorted chocolates, hence;

x + y = 10 ................. 1

If some of the chocolates in the box sold  for $1.75 per pound and some sold for $2.00 per pound with mixture sold for $1.90 per pound, then:

1.75x + 2x = 1.90 ................ 2

Solve equations 1 and 2 simultaneously.

x + y = 10 ................. 1 * 20

17.5x + 20x = 19 ................ 2 * 1

____________________________

20x + 20y = 200

17.5x + 20x = 19

Subtract

20x - 17.5x = 200 - 19

2.5x = 181x = 7.24

Substitute 7.24 into 1

x  + y = 10

y = 10 - 7.24

x = 2.76

This shows that about 7 and 3 pounds of each chocolate were included in the mixture.

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Small: 178

Large: 84

Step-by-step explanation:

L + S = 262

S = 262 - L

3L + S = 430

3L + 262 - L = 430

2L = 168

L = 84

S = 262 - 84

S = 178

2sec^2x - secx - 1 = 0
Ivenika [448]
What are you trying to do here?
Solve the graph, or make it appear as something else?

First, we're going to take one sec (x) out so that we get:
sec (x) (2sec (x) -1 -1) = 0

sec (x) (2sec (x) -2) = 0


Then we're going to separate the two to find the zeros of each because anything time 0 is zero.

sec(x) = 0

2sec (x) - 2 = 0

Now, let's simplify the second one as the first one is already.

Add 2 to both sides:

2sec (x) = 2

Divide by 3 on both sides:

sec (x) = 1


I forgot my unit circle, so you'd have to do that by yourself. Hopefully, I helped a bit though!
