Answer:
10 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x pounds be the amount of mixed nuts we require.
Amount of peanuts in this mix = 0.70x pounds. Amount of peanuts in the 20% mix = 0.20*15 = 3 pounds.
So we have the equation:-
0.70 x + 3 = 0.40(x + 15)
0.70 x + 3 = 0.40(x + 15)
0.70x + 3 = 0.40x + 6
0.70x - 0.40x = 6 - 3
0.30x = 3
x = 10.
About 190% because its almost two times the original number

Answer:
$110,080
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an arithmetic sequence because each new term is obtained by adding $5000 to the preivous term.
The general formula for such an arithmetic series is
a(n) = $80,000 + ($5,000)(n - 1)
and so in his 23rd year Jason would make
a(23) = $80,000 + ($5,000)(23 - 1), or
$110,080
