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:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
Our expression:
2 * (18 + - 8)
Plus then minus (+ -) is the same as just minus ( - )
Some examples:
1 + (+ 1) = 2
1 + (- 1) = 0
1 - (+ 1) = 0
1 - (- 1) = 2
Thus, 18 + - 8 is the same as 18 - 8
2 * (18 + - 8) =
= 2 * (18 - 8) =
= 2* (10) =
= 2 * 10 =
= 20
Answer: 20
The answer is roughly 13.
