Let
x = pounds of peanuts
y = pounds of cashews
z = pounds of Brazil nuts.
The total pounds is 50, therefore
x + y + z = 50 (1)
The total cost is $6.60 per pound for 50 pounds of mixture.
The total is equal to the sum of the costs of the different nuts.
Because the cost for peanuts, cashews, and Brazil nuts are $3, $10, and $9 respectively, therefore
3x + 10y + 9z = 50*6.8
3x + 10y + 9z = 340 (2)
There are 10 fewer pounds of cashews than peanuts, therefore
x = y + 10 (3)
Substitute (3) into (1) and (2).
y + 10 + y + z = 50
2y + z = 40 (4)
3(y + 10) + 10y + 9z = 340
13y + 9z = 310 (5)
From (4),
z = 40 - 2y (6)
Substitute (6) into (5).
13y + 9(40 - 2y) = 310
-5y = -50
y = 10
z = 40 - 2y = 40 - 20 = 20
x = y + 10 = 20
Answer:
Peanuts: 20 pounds
Cashews: 10 pounds
Brazil nuts: 20 pounds
G is not necessarily the midpoint of EX, G could be at -3 or +9 and X could be at -9 or +15. If G and X are on the same side of E, then G is at the midpoint of EX, if they are on opposite sides, G is not the midpoint of EX.
Answer:
If 2 mph) 5 hours
If 2.5 mph) 4 hours
If m mph) 10/m hours
If m+2 mph) 10/(m+2) hours
If m/3 mph) 30/m hours
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the time divide the distance (10) by the speed.
10/2=5
10/2.5=4
10/m
10/(m+2)
10/(m/3)=10(3/m)=30/m
Answer:
64
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
A unit rate is the total cost for a single item.
Example: 10 dollars for 2 brooms (idk xD)
You would divide it. 10 ÷ 2 = 5
It would be 5 dollars for 1 broom
^ Unit rate
Hope this helps! Have a lovely day! ~Pooch ♥
