Let:
x = Pounds of walnuts in the mix.
Each pound of walnuts costs $0.80. thus x pounds of walnuts cost 0.8x dollars.
Each pound of cashews costs $1.25 and the mix will contain 8 pounds of cashews, so the cost is 8*$1.25 = $10
The total cost of the mix is, therefore: 0.8x + 10 dollars.
We are also given the pound of mix costs $1.00 and we have a total of 8 + x pounds, so the total cost of the mix is 1*(8 + x) dollars.
Equating both costs:
0.8x + 10 = 1*(8 + x)
Operating:
0.8x + 10 = 8 + x
Subtracting x and 10:
0.8x - x = 8 - 10
Simplifying:
-0.2x = -2
Dividing by -0.2:
x = -2/(-0.2)
x = 10
Answer: 10 pounds
We are given the data that in each box of cupcakes the capacity is a maximum of 24. There are 300 cupcakes required. Hence the number of boxes needed is 300 cupacakes/ 24 cupcakes/ box. The answer is equals to 12. 5. Since there is no such thing as 0.5 box, the answer is rounded up to C. 13

Answer:
In order to ride on the ride an individual must be at least 4 feet tall.
This means that the individual must be equal to 4 ¾ feet tall.
h = 4 ⅓
and the individual could be greater than 4¾ feet tall.
h > 4 ¾
So the individual could be greater than and equal to 4¾ feet tall.
h ≥ 4¾
