Answer:
Option A.) 20 pounds of walnuts and 25 pounds of almonds is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
i) let x be the the number of pounds of almonds
ii) let y be the number of pounds of walnuts
iii) therefore x + y = 45 pounds of the mixture
iv) 1.2x + 0.75y = 1.00 45 = 45
v) Multipling equation in iv) by 4 we get
4.8x + 3y = 180
vi) multiplying equation in iii) by 3 we get
3x + 3y = 135
vii) subtracting equation vi) from equation v) we get 1.8x = 45
ix) therefore we get x = 45/1.8 = 25 pounds of almonds
x) therefore 25 + y = 45 .... substituting value of x from ix) in iii) we get
therefore y = 20 pounds of walnuts
Therefore option A.) 20 pounds of walnuts and 25 pounds of almonds is correct.
