The candy store owner should use 37.5 pounds of the candy costing $1.25 a pound.
Given:
- Candy costing $1.25 a pound is to be mixed with candy costing $1.45 a pound
- The resulting mixture should be 50 pounds of candy
- The resulting mixture should cost $1.30 a pound
To find: The amount of candy costing $1.25 a pound that should be mixed
Let us assume that the resulting mixture should be made by mixing 'x' pounds of candy costing $1.25 a pound.
Since the total weight of the resulting mixture should be 50 pounds, 'x' pounds of candy costing $1.25 a pound should be mixed with '
' pounds of candy costing $1.45 a pound.
Then, the resulting mixture contains 'x' pounds of candy costing $1.25 a pound and '' pounds of candy costing $1.45 a pound.
Accordingly, the total cost of the resulting mixture is 
However, the resulting mixture should be 50 pounds and should cost $1.30 a pound. Accordingly, the total cost of the resulting mixture is 
Equating the total cost of the resulting mixture obtained in two ways, we get,
This implies that the resulting mixture should be made by mixing 37.5 pounds of candy costing $1.25 a pound.

Yes, EF is parallel to CD. Translation is the simple slide of a shape, therefore it doesn't have an effect on parallel lines.
First find the amount at the end of the deferment period using the formula of the future value of a compound interest
A=8,960×(1+0.2735÷12)^(6)
A=10,257.25
Use the amount we found as the present value to find the monthly payment by using the formula of the present value of an annuity ordinary to get
PMT=10,257.25÷((1−(1+0.2735
÷12)^(−12×6))÷(0.2735÷12))
=291.27 ....Answer
Answer: Hello mate!
in your group, there are 16 players, 10 males, and 6 females.
in this case, 5 males already arrived (then there are 5 other males left)
and 4 females already arrived (then there are other 2 females left)
then there are a total of 7 players left, where 2 are female and 5 are males.
you want to know the probability that the next person through the door will be a male.
this is the number of male players left, divided by the number of players left: 5/7 = 0.71
then the probability that the next person through the door will be a male is 0.71.
