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:
3:5 <em>the colon is needed to represent the ratio</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
r = 10
g = 4
y = 30 - 14 = 6
y = 6
so ratio of total balls is 10:4:6
and ratio of y:r is
6:10
simply by dividing by 2
3:5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
∠Y = ∠P, so AY = AP
Perimeter = AY + AP + 13 = 43
AY + AP = 30
∠Y = ∠P, so AY = AP
AP = 30/2 = 15
The formula to find the midpoint of a segment is ((x1 + x2)/2,),(y1 + y2)/2).
The x coordinate of the first point is -4, and the x coordinate of the second point is -8. The y coordinate of the first point is 6, and the y coordinate of the second point is -2. Now, we can plug these into our formula.
((-4 + (-8))/2), (6 + (-2))/2)) = (-12/2), (4/2) = (-6, 2)
So, (-6, 2) is the midpoint of the segment.
Here is an example:
Josh bought 7 apples for $21.
21/7 is 3, so one apple costs $3. This is the unit rate.
21/7 simplifies to 3/1, that’s another way to think about it. Simplify the fraction until the denominator is 1.
Hope this helps! Tell me if you have any questions!
