Answer:

  10 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the number of pounds of cashews to be added. Then the total cost of the mix will be ...

  4.00c +1.5(40) = 2.00(c+40)

  4c +60 = 2c +80 . . . . . . . . . . . simplify

  2c = 20 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 60 + 2c

  c = 10 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 2

10 pounds of cashews should be mixed with the peanuts.

The third figure is the answer (Look to the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

* The point of symmetry means

- If a figure or graph can be rotated 180° about a point P

 and end up looking identical to the original, then P is a point

 of symmetry

- The same distance from the central point

  but in the opposite direction.

* Lets look to the four answers

- In the 3rd figure first line up can be rotated 180° about a point P

 and end up looking identical to the second line down, then P
