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
Step-by-step explanation:
but sorry i can't get the answer of (2x-1) =3 (x+5) because the answer of this came -16
By using the midpoint formula and the equation of the line, the equation of the line of symmetry is x = - 2.
<h3>How to derive the equation of the axis of symmetry </h3>
In this question we know the locations of two points with the same y-value, which means that the axis of symmetry is parallel to the y-axis and that both points are equidistant. Thus, the axis of symmetry passes through the midpoint of the line segment whose ends are those points.
First, calculate the coordinates of the midpoint by the midpoint formula:
M(x, y) = 0.5 · (- 7, 11) + 0.5 · (3, 11)
M(x, y) = (- 2, 11)
Second, look for the first coordinate of the midpoint and derive the equation of the line associated with the axis of symmetry:
x = - 2
By using the midpoint formula and the equation of the line, the equation of the line of symmetry is x = - 2.

The values of the rates 4/5 mile in 8 minutes and 4 minutes to travel 2/5 mile are equal
<h3>How to compare and contrast the rates?</h3>
The rates are given as:
Rate 1 = 4/5 mile in 8 minutes
Rate 2 = 2/5 mile in 4 minutes
Calculate the above rates
This is done as follows:
Rate 1 = 1/10 mile per minute
Rate 2 =1/10 mile per minute
When the rates are calculated, the values are 1/10 mile per minute
Hence, the values of the rates 4/5 mile in 8 minutes and 4 minutes to travel 2/5 mile are equal
