<span>Answer is: 414 pounds of red fescue and 138 pounds of chewings fescue is needed to produce 552 pounds of mixture.</span>
<span>Explanation:
x - how much of red fescue is needed for one pound of mixture
y - how much of chewings fescue is needed for one pound of mixture</span>x*12+ y*16 = 15<span>x + y = 1
so, x=1-y
putting it into first line:</span><span>(1-y)*12 + y*16 = 15
12 - 12*y + 16*y = 15
4*y = 3
y=3/4
so, x= 1-3/4; x=1/4</span>So to produce 552 pounds of mixture we need..<span>To produce 1 pound of mixture we need: 3/4 pound of red fescue and 1/4 pound of chewing fescue so to produce 552 pounds of miture we need:
552*3/4 - red fescue, which is 414 pounds needed
and
552/4 - chewings fescue, which is 138 pounds needed</span>
Option B. 12/ 125 is the answer.
Explanation
Total umber of sour ball candies = 50
Number of lemon candies = 12
Hence the probability to get a lemon candy is = 12/50
Number of cherry sour balls = 20
So, the probability to get a cherry sour ball = 20/50
So, to get the joint probability for a random selection to either get a lemon or cherry candy, we will multiply both the probabilities.

I think it’s b but I’m not to sure sorry if it’s wrong!
