Answer:
10 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x pounds be the amount of mixed nuts we require.
Amount of peanuts in this mix = 0.70x pounds. Amount of peanuts in the 20% mix = 0.20*15 = 3 pounds.
So we have the equation:-
0.70 x + 3 = 0.40(x + 15)
0.70 x + 3 = 0.40(x + 15)
0.70x + 3 = 0.40x + 6
0.70x - 0.40x = 6 - 3
0.30x = 3
x = 10.
<span>Answer: 199.81
Given:
1 hundred
9 tens
9 ones
8 tenths
1 hundredths
thus;
1 hundred = 1 x 100 = 100
9 tens = 9 x 10 = 90
9 ones = 9 x 1 = 9
8 tenths = 8 x 1/10 = 8/10 or .8
1 hundredth = 1 x 1/100 = 1/100 or .01
add: 100 + 90 + 9 + .8 + .001 = 199.81
That is: one hundred ninety-nine and eighty-one hundredths</span>
-22 = - (x - 4)
= -22 = -x + 4 (distribute the minus)
= -26 = -x (subtract 4 from both sides)
= 26 = x (divide by -1 to remove the minus from x)
so, x = 26
