To solve the problem we must establish two equations.
let x be the mass of the 20 cents almonds
y be the mass of the 36 cents mixture
first equation is:

x + 40 = y

the second equation is:
0.2x + 40(0.4) = 0.36y

solving the equations simultaneously
x = 10 lb of the 20 cents almonds is needed to mix

Answer:

Equal to

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Let's simplify the left side:

  • - ( -9 )          
  • 9

Remember that the negative sign also means opposite, so the opposite of negative 9 is positive 9.

Let's simplfy the right side:

  • | - 9 |
  • 9

Remember that in an absolute value bracket, any positive value stays positive, but any negative value turns to the positive value.

So the inequality is 9 _ 9

Therefore the sign should be "=" as 9 is equal to 9.
