The batch of sweets should contain ____m lb of Brand A granola and
____m lb of Brand B granola. Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x = lbs of A
y = lbs of B
---
x + y = 10
25x + 20y = 21*10
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
x + y = 10
25x + 20y = 210
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:
