Acandy store owner has chocolate candies worth $2.00 per pound ad sour candies worth $0.75per pound. how much of each kind should she combine to get. 50 on of mixed candies worth $1.50 per pound (include units with your numerical answers.)

Let a = number of chocolate candies and b = number of sour candies. That gives us two equations

2a + 0.75b = 75 (75 is the total weight, since $1.50 * 50 = 75)
a + b = 50 (Need 50 candies in total)

a = 50 - b (Solve the second equation for a)

Now plug a = 50 - b into the first equation and solve for b:
2(50 - b) + 0.75b = 75
100 - 2b + 0.75b = 75
-1.25b = -25
b = 20

And with b = 20, solve for a:
a = 30

Therefore, we will need 30 lbs of chocolate candies and 20 lbs of sour candies

hope it is correct if not i'm srry i tried to
