The grocer wants to make a 10 pound mixture
p - pounds of peanuts
c - pounds of cashews
therefore the total pounds should be equal to 10 pounds
p + c = 10 -----> 1)
the cost for ;
peanuts - 4.00 per pound * p pounds = 4p
cashews - 6.50 per pound * c pounds = 6.5c
the price of 10 pounds mixture = 4.75 per pound * 10 pounds = 47.5
4p+6.5c = 47.5 ---> 2)
to solve for p and c lets use simultaneous equations
p + c = 10 -----> 1)
4p+6.5c = 47.5 ---> 2)
multiply 1st equation by 4
4p + 4c = 40 ---> 3)
subtract 3rd equation from the 2nd
2.5c = 7.5
c = 3
substituting c= 3 in 1st equation
p+c = 10
p+3 = 10
p = 7
therefore 3 pounds of cashews and 7 pounds of peanuts are needed to make the mixture

Answer:
2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
The question asks to calculate the number of boys in a group who has brown eyes given the fraction of the boys having the brown eyes.
To do this, we can take any arbitrary value for the total number of students in the math club. Let’s say this is 360 students.
Now, we are told that half of these number are boys. The total number of boys is thus 180 boys. Also, we are made to know that 4/9 of these boys have brown eyes. This means 4/9 of 180 boys have brown eyes. This is numerically equal to 4/9 * 180 = 80 boys.
Hence, the fraction of the math club with brown eyes is 80/360 = 2/9
B is the answer coz L by w is equal to area of a triangle. Let x be the width and (x +12 ) is the length. That’s
X multiple by (x +12) = 71 then find the value of x
X will be the width
X+12 will be the length
