Answer:

<em>The new mixture is 49% peanuts.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The first batch of 9 lb of mixed nuts contains 55% peanuts. This means the quantity of peanut is:

9*55/100=4.95 lb

The second batch of 6 lb of mixed nuts contains 40% peanuts. This means the quantity of peanut is:

6*40/100=2.4 lb

The total quantity of peanut in the mix is

4.95 lb + 2.4 lb =7.35 lb

There are 9 lb + 6 lb = 15 lb of mix. Thus, the percent of peanut in the mix is:

7.35 / 15 * 100 = 49%

The new mixture is 49% peanuts.
