Answer: 40 pounds of cashews should be mixed with the peanuts to ensure no change in the revenue
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of pounds of cashews that should be mixed with the peanuts to ensure no change in the revenue.
The nut store normally sells cashews for $4.00 per pound and peanuts for $1.50 per pound.
In order to sell 60 pounds of peanuts, the manager decided to mix the 60 pounds of peanuts with some cashews and sell the mixture for $2.50 per pound. It means that
4x + (1.5 × 60) = 2.5(60 + x)
4x + 90 = 150 + 2.5x
4x - 2.5x = 150 - 90
1.5x = 60
x = 60/1.5
x = 40
