Let n be the number of lbs of nuts.
Let r be the number of lbs of raisins.
9n + 3r = 60 * 5 = 300 .............(1)
n + r = 60
n = 60 - r ...............(2)
Plugging the expression for n in (2) into (1) we get:
9(60 - r) + 3r = 300
which expands to:
540 - 9r + 3r = 300 .............(3)
Simplifying and rearranging (3) we get:
-6r = -240
Therefore r, the weight of raisins = 40 lbs
and the weight of nuts is 60 - 40 = 20 lbs
Answer:
You do 4.50 divided by 18.2 and that equals 0.25 cents Pero oz and then you do 4.03 divided by 13.1 which that equals 0.31 cents per oz which that would mean the name brand cereal that’s on sale cost less Per oz

Answer:
372 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
(1 yd = 36 in., and 1 ft = 12 in.)
1 yard stick = 24 in
This means , height of 36 inches casts a shadow of 24 Inches
At the same time a telephone pole casts a shadow of 20 ft 8 in
1 ft = 12 in
Hence,
Convey 20ft to inches
1 ft = 12 in
20 ft = 20 × 12 inches
= 240 inches
Total shadow of the telephone pole = 240in + 8 in = 248 = 248 inches
Hence,
Height/Length of shadow = Height/Length of shadow
36/24= x /248
Cross Multiply
24 × x = 36× 248
x = 36 × 248/24
x = 372 inches
The height of the telephone pole, to the nearest inch is 372 inches
