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

What is 30=-5(6n+6) im confused
Flauer [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

30 = -5(6n + 6)...distribute the 5 thru the parenthesis

30 = -30n - 30....add 30 to both sides

30 + 30 = -30n

60 = -30n....divide both sides by -30

-60/30 = n

-2 = n <===

Pls asap completing square X^2 -24x+5=0
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - 24x + 5 = 0

x² - 24x = -5

Now divide the co efficient of x by 2 and square the quotient and add to both sides

24/2 = 12

12² = 144. Now add 144 to both sides of the equation.

x² - 24x + 144 = 5 + 144

x² - 24x  + 144 = 149

x² - 2*12*x + 12² = 149

(x  - 12)² = 149

Both sides take square root

x - 12  = ±√149

x = 12 ± √149
