Answer:
- 3.6 pounds of granola and 5.4 pounds of nuts
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the required granola be x pounds, then amount of nuts is 9 - x.
<u>The price of the mixture is as below equation:</u>
- 6.5x + 9(9 - x) = 8*9
- 6.5x + 81 - 9x = 72
- 81 - 2.5x = 72
- 2.5x = 81 - 72
- 2.5x = 9
- x = 9/2.5
- x = 3.6
<u>Find the amount of nuts:</u>
14 20
---- = ----- cross multiply
3x x-5
14(x-5) = 3x (20)
14x - 70 = 60x
-14x -14x
-70 = 36x
/36 /36
-70/36 = x
or
-35/18 = x
