Answer:

Michael buys 60 kg of dark chocolate and 40 kg of milk chocolate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d be the number of kilograms of dark chocolate Michael buys and m be the number of kilograms of milk chocolate he buys.

He needs to buy 100 kg of chocolate in total, then

[tex]d+m=100[/tex]

Dark chocolate costs $12 per kilogram, then d kg cost $12d. Milk chocolate costs $10 per kilogram, then m kg cost $10m. Michael wants to spend $1,120 for the chocolate, then

[tex]12d+10m=1,120[/tex]

From the first equation

[tex]d=100-m[/tex]

Substitute it into the second equation:

[tex]12(100-m)+10m=1,120\\ \\1,200-12m+10m=1,120\\ \\-12m+10m=1,120-1,200\\ \\-2m=-80\\ \\m=40\\ \\d=100-m=100-40=60[/tex]

Michael buys 60 kg of dark chocolate and 40 kg of milk chocolate.
