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: it will take 5 months for both gyms to cost the same.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of months for which the total cost of gyms are the same.
Gym A charges a new member fee of $65 and $20 per month. This means that the cost of using gym A for x months would be
20x + 65
Gym B charges a new member fee of $25 and $35 per month but you get a discount of 20% monthly.
20% of 35 is 20/100 × 35 = 7
The monthly charge would be
35 - 7 = 28
This means that the cost of using gym A for x months would be
28x + 25
The number of months that it will take for the cost of both gyms to be the same would be
20x + 65 = 28x + 25
28x - 20x = 65 - 25
8x = 40
x = 40/8 = 5
I think 0 because 9+11+12=32
32+-32 or 32-32= 0
