The cost of the mixture is $69 *$1 = $69. If all 69 pounds were peanuts, the cost would be 69*$0.99 = $68.31, which is $0.69 less. Each pound of walnuts used instead of peanuts adds $0.03 to the cost of the mixture, so there were $0.69/$0.03 = 23 pounds of walnuts. 
<span>_____ </span>
<span>Let w represent the number of pounds of walnuts in the mixture. Then 69-w is the number of pounds of peanuts. The cost of the mixture will be </span>
<span>1.02w + 0.99(69-w) = 1.00*69 dollars </span>
<span>0.03w + 68.31 = 69.00 </span>
<span>w = (69.00 - 68.31)/0.03 = 0.69/0.03 = 23</span>

Find the x-intercept and the y-intercept without graphing. Write the coordinates of each intercept.
ANEK [815]

Answer:

Point of x-intercept: (2,0).

Point of y-intercept: (0,6).

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Finding the x-intercept.

This point is where the graph of the function touches the x axis. It can be found by substituting the "y" for 0. This is how you do it:

y=-3x+6\\ \\-3x+6=0\\ \\-3x=-6\\\\x=\frac{-6}{-3} \\ \\x=2

Hence, the point of x-intercept: (2,0).

2. Finding the y-intercept.

This point is where the graph of the function touches the y axis. It can be found by substituting the "x" for 0. This is how you do it:

y=-3(0)+6\\ \\y=6

Hence, the point of y-intercept: (0,6).
