Answer:

The amount of peanuts to use is 5 pounds and that of cashews is 30 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of peanut to use to be x

Let the amount of cashews to use to be 35-x

Form equations to compare amounts for individual foods and the mixture

$8x+15(35-x)=35(14)\\\\8x+525-15x=490\\\\7x=35\\\\x=5\\\\$

So the pounds to be used for peanuts is 5 pounds

The pounds to be used for cashews will be 35-x= 35-5=30 pounds
