  1. 8lb of the cheaper Candy

    17.5lb of the expensive candy

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let the cheaper candy be x

    let the costly candy be y

    X+y = 25.5equation one

    2.2x +7.3y = 25.5(5.7)

    2.2x +7.3y = 145.35equation two

    X+y = 25.5

    2.2x +7.3y = 145.35

    Solving simultaneously

    X= 25.5-y

    Substituting value of X into equation two

    2.2(25.5-y) + 7.3y = 145.35

    56.1 -2.2y +7.3y = 145.35

    5.1y = 145.35-56.1

    5.1y = 89.25

    Y= 89.25/5.1

    Y= 17.5

    X= 25.5-y

    X= 25.5-17.5

    X= 8
