Answer:
The amount of nuts is 16 kg and cereal mixture is 44 kg to obtain 60 kg of a mix that will sell for $1.40 per kg
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x=nuts at $2.50 per kg
y=cereal at $1 per kg
x+y=60 kg (1)
2.50x+y=1.40(60) (2)
From (1)
x=60-y
Substitute x=60-y into (2)
2.50x+y=1.40(60)
2.50(60-y)+y=84
150-2.5y+y=84
-1.5y=84-150
-1.5y=-66
Divide both sides by -1.5
y=44 kg
Substitute y=44 into (1)
x+y=60
x+44=60
x=60-44
=16
x=16 kg
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, we need to create and algebraic equation for when Jill's weight will be equal to Paris's. If we take their current weight and then add the additional weight gain per month times the number of months, we can calculate the amount of time it will take for their weight to be equal by solving for m.
I believe the answer is $33.60?
