Answer:
amount of nuts = 2 pounds
amount of dried fruit = 4 pounds

Explanation:
We are given that x is the amount of nuts and y is the amount of dried fruit.
We are also given that:
1- Hunter needs to make 6 pounds of trail mix. This means that:
x + y = 6
This can be rewritten as:
x = 6 - y .........> equation I
2- x costs $4 per pound, y costs $3.5 and Hunter can spend a total of $22. This means that:
4x + 3.5y = 22 ..........> equation II

Substitute with equation I in equation II and solve for y as follows:
4x + 3.5y = 22
4(6-y) + 3.5y = 22
24 - 4y + 3.5y = 22
24-22 = 4y-3.5y
2 = 0.5y
y = 4 pounds

Substitute with y in equation I to get the value of x as follows:
x = 6-y
x = 6-4
x = 2 pounds

Hope this helps :)

What is the additive identity of rational number​
Burka [1]

Answer:

zero(0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The additive identity of a set of number is a number such that the its sum with any of the numbers in the set would give a result that is equal to the number in that set.

In other words, say for example the set of numbers is rational, the additive identity of rational numbers is 0. This is because, given any rational number say <em>x</em>, adding zero to the number <em>x</em> gives the same number <em>x. </em>i.e

x + 0 = x

If x is say 2, then we have;

2 + 0 = 2

Since adding zero to rational numbers gives has no effect on the numbers, then zero (0) is the additive identity of rational numbers.
