Given that a <span>store is selling two mixtures of nuts in 20-ounce bags: peanuts and cashews.
Let the cost of one ounce of peanut be x and the cost of one ounce of cashew be y, then
Given that </span>t<span>he first mixture has 15 ounces of peanuts combined with five ounces of cashews, and costs $4.25 implies that 15x + 5y = 4.25
Also, given that </span>t<span>he second mixture has five ounces of peanuts and 15 ounces of cashews, and costs $6.75 mplies that 5x + 15y = 6.75
To obtain the cost of </span><span>one ounce of peanuts and one ounce of cashews, we solve the two equations above, simultaneously:
Therefore, </span><span>one ounce of peanuts and one ounce of cashews cost $0.15 and $0.40 respectively.</span>
