Divide the figure into a triangle on the left and a rectangle on the right. You know the side lengths of the rectangle are 3 x 10, so multiply to get the area of the rectangle. Next, find the area of the triangle. The area of a triangle is given by 1/2bh, where b is the base and h is the height. Because you know the short side of the rectangle is 3, subtract 3 from 5 to get the base of the triangle. then multiply that by 10, the height, and divide by 2 to get the area of the triangle. Then just add up the area of the triangle and the area of the rectangle to get your answer :)

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>
