Answer:
Each should be used as follows:
Weight of peppermints = X = 25 lb
Weight of Chocolates = Y = 15 lb
Explanation:
Suppose
Weight of peppermints = X
Weight of Chocolates = Y
So According to given condition
X + Y = 40 (Eq. 1)
1.2X + 2.4Y = 1.65*40
1.2X + 2.4Y = 66 (Eq. 2)
By multiplying (Eq. 1) with 1.2 we get
1.2X + 1.2Y = 48 (Eq. 3)
Now by subtracting (Eq. 2) from (Eq. 3)
(1.2X + 1.2Y) - (1.2X + 2.4Y) = 48 - 66
1.2X + 1.2Y - 1.2X - 2.4Y = -18
1.2X - 1.2X + 1.2Y - 2.4Y = -18 (Rearrange)
-1.2Y = -18
1.2Y = 18
Y = 18/1.2
Y = 15
By placing value of Y in (Eq. 1)
X + 15 = 40
X = 40 - 15
X = 25
<u>Check</u>
1.2X + 2.4Y = 66
1.2 (25) + 2.4 (15) = 66
66 = 66
