Question 932724: A chocolate factory has 2 kinds of chocolate minibar which cost 14 and 8 per kg., respectively. How many kgs. each must be used to make a mixture of 42 kg to sell at 10 per kg.? Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x = kg of $14 bars
y = kg of $8 bars
---
x + y = 42
14x + 8y = 10*42
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
x + y = 42
14x + 8y = 420
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:
