Answer:

8 pounds of peanuts, 6 pounds of raisins and 6 pounds of chocolate chips

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of pounds of peanuts and y be the number of pounds of raisins and chocolate chips.

Peanuts cost $2 per pound, then x pounds cost $2x.

Raisins cost $2.50 per pound, then y pounds cost $2.50y.

Chocolate chips cost $4 per pound, then y pounds cost $4y.

In total, x+y+y=20 and those 20 pounds cost

2x+2.50y+4y=20·2.75.

Solve the system of two equations:

\left \{ {{x+2y=20} \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \atop {2x+6.5y=55}} \right.

From the first equation:

x=20-2y

Substitute x into the second equation:

2(20-2y)+6.5y=55\\ \\40-4y+6.5y=55\\ \\2.5y=15\\ \\25y=150\\ \\y=6\\ \\x=20-2\cdot 6=8

How do you find the markup rate?
andrezito [222]

Answer: Simply take the sales price minus the unit cost, and divide that number by the unit cost. Then, multiply by 100 to determine the markup percentage. For example, if your product costs $50 to make and the selling price is $75, then the markup percentage would be 50%.
