Let:
x = Pounds of walnuts in the mix.
Each pound of walnuts costs $0.80. thus x pounds of walnuts cost 0.8x dollars.
Each pound of cashews costs $1.25 and the mix will contain 8 pounds of cashews, so the cost is 8*$1.25 = $10
The total cost of the mix is, therefore: 0.8x + 10 dollars.
We are also given the pound of mix costs $1.00 and we have a total of 8 + x pounds, so the total cost of the mix is 1*(8 + x) dollars.
Equating both costs:
0.8x + 10 = 1*(8 + x)
Operating:
0.8x + 10 = 8 + x
Subtracting x and 10:
0.8x - x = 8 - 10
Simplifying:
-0.2x = -2
Dividing by -0.2:
x = -2/(-0.2)
x = 10
Answer: 10 pounds
Answer:
B.
Step-by-step explanation:
So there are 16 grams initally. Then, the amount of water decreases by 3.5%.
So first we must find 3.5% of 16. 3.5% in decimal form is 0.035, since you divide 3.5 by 100. Then, when you multiply 0.035 by 16, you get 0.56. Since the solution decreased by that percentage, you must subtract 0.56 from 16, which is 15.44.
Then the amount of water decreases by 4.25%. That in decimal form is 0.0425. You multiply it by 15.44, and it comes out to 0.6562. You subtract that from 15.44, not 16, since some of the water has evaporated. So you get 14.7838.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
ABCD is a square.
side = 24 cm
Area of square = side * side = 24 * 24 = 576 cm²
Semicircle:
d = 24 cm
r = 24/2 = 12 cm
Area of semi circle =πr²
= 3.14 * 12 * 12
= 452.16 cm²
Area of shaded region = area of square - area of semicircle + area of semicircle
= 576 - 452.16 + 452.16
= 576 cm²
Perimeter:
Circumference of semicircle = 2πr
= 2 * 3.14 * 12
= 75.36
Perimeter = 2* circumference of semicircle + 24 + 24
= 2 * 75.36 + 24 + 24
= 150.72 + 24 + 24
= 198.72 cm
