Let p be the number of pounds of peanuts and c the number of pounds of cashews 
If a 100-pound mix is to sell for $3.30 per pound 
Then the total value of the mix would be $3.30 x 100 = $330,  
so we have 
 2.80*p + 5.30*c = 330 ------ (1)
 We also know that the total mix is 100 pounds, so:
 p + c = 100 ------------- (2)
 Solving these system of equations we have that c=20 and p =100 - c from
(2)
 p = 80 pound of peanuts

A personal tax cut of $50 billion will affect income differently than an increase in government spending by $50 billion because:
Bess [88]

Answer:

C) Households may save part of the additional income from the tax cut

Explanation:

When we consider the total household income there is always a major part that is spent, this is called propensity to consume. It is defined as the proportion of total income that consumers are willing to spend.

But propensity to consume doesn't include 100% of household income, there also exists the propensity to save. That is the exact opposite, is the proportion of our income that we will save for future use.

Luckily for us all, the propensity to spend is usually much higher than the propensity to save. We have to remember that private consumption represents nearly 70% of the nation's GDP.

What households save goes to investment in GDP. Investment is always needed but it represents future growth of the GDP while consumption represents current growth of the GDP.

1. Suppose the Glucometer company is to sell the machine only to hospitals, and the company will maintain the Glucometer machine
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Note: The full question is attached as picture below

Glucometer company's Total cost can be calculated as $3000 + $500*4 = $5000

Also we can find the customers served in four years of visit = 80*300*4 = 96,000  customers

Also, by estimating that each customer pays $1 for utilizing the machine, the hospitals can make an estimated revenue of $96000.

=> Anything below the range of $96,000 will be an advantage for the hospitals and anything to the rise of $5,000 will be an advantage for the Glucometer Company.

Thus the price of these machines should be decided between the ranges to collate on the revenue goals of the Glucometer Organization.
