Since "p" represents the number of pounds of peanuts and:
4.05p + 14.40 = 4.50(p + 3) [then by distributing we have:
4.05p + 14.40 = 4.50p + 13.5 [then by subtracting 13.5 from both sides we have:
4.05p + 0.9 = 4.50p [then by subtracting 4.05p from both sides we have:
0.9 = 0.45p [then by dividing both sides by 0.45 we have:
2 = p
So there are 2 pounds of peanuts needed for the trail mix.

Step-by-step explanation:
if you need the explanation you can comment
If 1/5 are chocolate chip, then 4/5 are not chocolate chip because 1 - 1/5 = 4/5.
Half of 4/5 are peanut butter. Half of 4/5 is 2/5, so 2/5 of the cookies are peanut butter.
