Answer:
The number of pounds of cashew is 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Let P represent the peanut
Let C represent the cashew nut.
From question, we were told that Elijah brought a total of 16 pounds of peanuts and cashew nuts. This can be written as:
P + C = 16 (1)
The total cost = $49.50
Cost per peanut = $2.75
Cost per cashew = $3.25
The above can be represented as:
49.50 = 2.75P + 3.25C. (2)
From equation 1,
P + C = 16
P = 16 — C
Substitute the value of P into equation 2:
49.50 = 2.75P + 3.25C.
49.50 = 2.75(16 — C) + 3.25C
49.50 = 44 — 2.75C + 3.25C
49.50 = 44 + 0.5C
Collect like terms
49.50 — 44 = 0.5C
5.5 = 0.5C
Divide both side by 0.5
C = 5.5/0.5
C = 11
Therefore, the number of pounds of cashew is 11

Answer:
- northbound: 2.5 hours
- southbound: 1.5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
When the second train leaves the station, the trains are already 63 miles apart. The rate of increase of their separation is (57 +63) = 120 miles per hour. The remaining 243-63 = 180 miles of separation will be achieved in ...
(180 mi)/(120 mi/h) = 1.5 h
The northbound train will have traveled 2.5 hours; the southbound train will have traveled 1.5 hours when the trains are 243 miles apart.
