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
Answer:324

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:54
Step-by-step explanation:
Pentagon has 5 sides
n=5
Sum of interior angles=180(n-2)
Sum of interior angles=180(5-2)
Sum of interior angles=180x3
Sum of interior angles=540
Size of each interior angle =540/n
Size of each interior angle =540/5
Size of each interior angle=108
x=108/2
x=54
Answer:
127
Step-by-step explanation:
1069.60 divided by 8.40 is 127, so 127 adults I guess
