Answer:
- 3.6 pounds of granola and 5.4 pounds of nuts
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the required granola be x pounds, then amount of nuts is 9 - x.
<u>The price of the mixture is as below equation:</u>
- 6.5x + 9(9 - x) = 8*9
- 6.5x + 81 - 9x = 72
- 81 - 2.5x = 72
- 2.5x = 81 - 72
- 2.5x = 9
- x = 9/2.5
- x = 3.6
<u>Find the amount of nuts:</u>

Answer:
<h2>Ian will have enough money to buy the gift</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:

from January to June= 6 months
total savings = 21*6= $126
cost of gift = $110

Answer:
There is no value of x to fit this requirement.
Step-by-step explanation:
The 2 perimeters in terms of x are:
4(x + 3) for the square and
2(x+1) + 2(x +4) for the rectangle
and these need to be equal so
we equate these 2 and solve for x:
4(x + 3) = 2(x+1) + 2(x +4)
4x + 12 = 2x + 2 + 2x + 8
4x + 12 = 4x + 10
4x - 4x = 10 - 12
0 = -2 which is of course absurd so there is no solution to this equation.
