Let n be the number of lbs of nuts.
Let r be the number of lbs of raisins.
9n + 3r = 60 * 5 = 300 .............(1)
n + r = 60
n = 60 - r ...............(2)
Plugging the expression for n in (2) into (1) we get:
9(60 - r) + 3r = 300
which expands to:
540 - 9r + 3r = 300 .............(3)
Simplifying and rearranging (3) we get:
-6r = -240
Therefore r, the weight of raisins = 40 lbs
and the weight of nuts is 60 - 40 = 20 lbs

Answer:
(a) cannot be determined
(b) 44 cm^2
(c) 87 m^2
(d) 180 m^2
(e) 132 m^2
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) missing a horizontal dimension
__
(b) The difference between the bounding rectangle and the lower-left cutout is ...
(8 cm)(7 cm) -(3 cm)(4 cm) = (56 -12) cm^2 = 44 cm^2
__
(c) The difference between the bounding rectangle and the center cutout is ...
(13 m)(7 m) -(4 m)(1 m) = (91 -4) m^2 = 87 m^2
__
(d) The difference between the bounding rectangle and the two cutouts is ...
(20 m)(25 m) -(16 m)(20 m) = (20 m)(25 -16) m = (20 m)(9 m) = 180 m^2
__
(e) The difference between the bounding rectangle and the two cutouts is ...
(14 m)(12 m) -(12 m)(3 m) = (12 m)(14 -3) m = (12 m)(11 m) = 132 m^2
The answer would be the first phrase.
3x is 3 times x, and +4 is the sum of 3x and 4.
