Since "p" represents the number of pounds of peanuts and:
4.05p + 14.40 = 4.50(p + 3) [then by distributing we have:
4.05p + 14.40 = 4.50p + 13.5 [then by subtracting 13.5 from both sides we have:
4.05p + 0.9 = 4.50p [then by subtracting 4.05p from both sides we have:
0.9 = 0.45p [then by dividing both sides by 0.45 we have:
2 = p
So there are 2 pounds of peanuts needed for the trail mix.
