Christopher purchased 2.8 pounds of almonds and 3.5 pounds to roasted pistachios.
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of almonds per pound = $10
Cost of roasted pistachios = $12
Total amount spent = $70
Weight of nuts = 6.3
Let,
Weight of almonds = x
Weight of roasted pistachios = y
According to given statement;
x+y=6.3 Eqn 1
10x+12y=70 Eqn 2
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 10
Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2;
Dividing both sides by 2
Putting y=3.5 in Eqn 1
Christopher purchased 2.8 pounds of almonds and 3.5 pounds to roasted pistachios.
