Given that a <span>store is selling two mixtures of nuts in 20-ounce bags: peanuts and cashews.
Let the cost of one ounce of peanut be x and the cost of one ounce of cashew be y, then
Given that </span>t<span>he first mixture has 15 ounces of peanuts combined with five ounces of cashews, and costs $4.25 implies that 15x + 5y = 4.25
Also, given that </span>t<span>he second mixture has five ounces of peanuts and 15 ounces of cashews, and costs $6.75 mplies that 5x + 15y = 6.75
To obtain the cost of </span><span>one ounce of peanuts and one ounce of cashews, we solve the two equations above, simultaneously:

Therefore, </span><span>
one ounce of peanuts and one ounce of cashews cost $0.15 and $0.40 respectively.</span>
Answer:
C. 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Make the fraction denominators the same!
1/2 will become 4/8 over here, and 2/8 is already good!
Step 2
Subtract the new fractions!
4/8 - 2/8 is easy! It's 2/8
Step 3
Simplify the answer (2/8)
2/8 will become 1/4 when simplified
<h2>Hence, the final answer is 1/4</h2>
or C

The perimeter of a two-dimensional figure is always the sum of its sides.
The exercise mat has a perimeter (P) of <u>36 feet</u>. ...
Let length be <em>L</em>, and width be <em>W</em>.
P = 36
L = 2w
P=2(l+w)=2·(12+6)=36
L = 12 feet
W = 6 feet
<span>The reciprocal of a fraction is simply the reverse
position of the original fraction, its numerator and denominator. It is
represented by the formula of 1/number (fraction). To get the reciprocal of the
number, divide one by the fractional number. You are given the number 6/5. So you
have a numerator of 6 and a denominator of five. Simply swap them and you get
the new numerator as 5 and the new denominator as 6. Or you can just divide
1/(6/5) then you will get 5/6. The answer is letter D.</span>
