Answer:
100%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p = percent of cashews in first mix
2p = lb. of cashews in first mix
30(.20) = 6 = lb. of cashews in second mix
32(.25) = 8 = lb. of cashews in the combined mix
So,
lb. of cashews in first mix + lb. of cashews in second mix = lb. of cashews in the combined mix
2p + 6 = 8
2p = 2
p = 1 = 100%
Answer:
x = 3.67
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify both expressions
14x - 18 = 5x + 15
Subtract the bigger (n)x by the smaller
14x - 5x = 9x
Plus the smallest by itself, giving you:
9x - 18 = 15
+18 +18
9x = 33
Simplify ( divided by 3 )
3x = 11
x = 3.67
