Answer:
The amount of nuts is 16 kg and cereal mixture is 44 kg to obtain 60 kg of a mix that will sell for $1.40 per kg
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x=nuts at $2.50 per kg
y=cereal at $1 per kg
x+y=60 kg (1)
2.50x+y=1.40(60) (2)
From (1)
x=60-y
Substitute x=60-y into (2)
2.50x+y=1.40(60)
2.50(60-y)+y=84
150-2.5y+y=84
-1.5y=84-150
-1.5y=-66
Divide both sides by -1.5
y=44 kg
Substitute y=44 into (1)
x+y=60
x+44=60
x=60-44
=16
x=16 kg

Answer:
I think answer is 3
Step-by-step explanation:
BD = DA
BE = EC
Now, BD/BE = DA/EC
or, x + 5/2x = 4/3
or, 3x + 15 = 8x
or, 15 = 8x - 3x
or, 15 = 5x
or, 15/5 = x
or, 3 = x
Therefore x = 3 <u>Ans</u>
