Granola costs $6.50 per pound. Assorted nuts cost $9 per pound. How many pounds of granola and nuts are needed to make 9 pounds

bezimeni [28]

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>

9 - 3.6 = 5.4
