Number of pounds of macadamia nuts is 8 pounds and number of pounds of almonds is 4 pounds.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Step 1:
Given total pounds of mixture = 12 pounds, cost of macadamia nuts per pound = $9, cost of almonds per pound = $5.25, total cost of mixture per pound = $7.75.
Let number of pounds of macadamia nuts be x and number of pounds of almonds be 12-x.
Step 2:
Form an equation using the above information.
⇒ 9x + 5.25 (12-x) = 12 × 7.75
⇒ 9x + 63 - 5.25x = 93
⇒ 9x - 5.25x = 30
⇒ 3.75x = 30
⇒ x = 8
Number of macadamia nuts is 8 pounds.
Step 3:
Calculate number pounds of almonds
⇒ Number of pounds of almonds = 12 - x = 4 pounds.
It is 1 16/25
Hope it helps ;-)
Answer:
(2a, b )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the endpoints (x₁, y₁ ) and (x₂, y₂ ) then the midpoint is
[ 
(x₁ + x₂ ), (y₁ + y₂ ) ]
Here (x₁, y₁ ) = N(2a, 2b) and (x₂, y₂ ) = P(2a, 0), thus
midpoint = [ (2a + 2a), (2b + 0 ) ] = (2a, b )
7y=-24
y= -24/7
You have to add the two vaiables and then divide to get the y by itself.
