Sarah would like to make a 6 lb nut mixture that is 60% peanuts and 40% almonds. She has several pounds of a mixture that is 80%
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:  

<em>a.  The system of equations that models the situation is....</em>

<em>     0.80x+0.50y=3.60\\\\ 0.20x+0.50y=2.40</em>

<em>b.  The solution to the system:  x = 2 and y = 4 </em>

<em>The amount of 80/20 mixture is 2 pounds and the amount of 50/50              mixture is 4 pounds.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, the amount of 80/20 mixture is  x pounds and the amount of 50/50 mixture is  y pounds.

So, the amount of peanuts in 80/20 mixture = 0.80x pound and the amount of almonds in 80/20 mixture =0.20x pound.

And the amount of peanuts in 50/50 mixture =0.50y pound and the amount of almonds in 50/50 mixture =0.50y pound.

Now, Sarah would like to make a 6 pounds nut mixture that is 60% peanuts and 40% almonds.

So, the amount of peanuts in that mixture =(6\times 0.60)=3.60 pounds

and the amount of almonds in that mixture =(6 \times 0.40)= 2.40 pounds.

So, the system of equations will be.........

0.80x+0.50y=3.60 ...................(1)\\\\ 0.20x+0.50y=2.40...................(2)

Subtracting equation (2) from equation (1), we will get.....

(0.80x+0.50y)-(0.20x+0.50y)=3.60-2.40\\ \\ 0.60x=1.20\\ \\ x= \frac{1.20}{0.60}=2

Now, plugging this x=2 into equation (1), we will get......

0.80(2)+0.50y=3.60\\ \\ 1.60+0.50y=3.60\\ \\ 0.50y=3.60-1.60=2\\ \\ y=\frac{2}{0.50}=4

So, the amount of 80/20 mixture is 2 pounds and the amount of 50/50 mixture is 4 pounds.
