Number of pounds of macadamia nuts is 8 pounds and number of pounds of almonds is 4 pounds.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Step 1:
Given total pounds of mixture = 12 pounds, cost of macadamia nuts per pound = $9, cost of almonds per pound = $5.25, total cost of mixture per pound = $7.75.
Let number of pounds of macadamia nuts be x and number of pounds of almonds be 12-x.
Step 2:
Form an equation using the above information.
⇒ 9x + 5.25 (12-x) = 12 × 7.75
⇒ 9x + 63 - 5.25x = 93
⇒ 9x - 5.25x = 30
⇒ 3.75x = 30
⇒ x = 8
Number of macadamia nuts is 8 pounds.
Step 3:
Calculate number pounds of almonds
⇒ Number of pounds of almonds = 12 - x = 4 pounds.
AA = $1
AAA= $0.75
AA + AAA = 42
$1AA + $0.75AAA= $37
AA + AAA = 42
AA + AAA-AAA= 42- AAA
AA = 42- AAA
$1(42- AAA) + $0.75AAA= $37
$42 - AAA +0.75AAA = $37
$42 -0.25AAA= $37
$42-$42 -0.25AAA= $37 -$42
-0.25AAA= -5
-0.25AAA/-0.25 = -5/-0.25
AAA= 20
AA + AAA= 42
AA + 20 = 42
AA +20 -20 = 42-20
AA= 22
Check
$1AA + $0.75AAA= $37
$1(22)+ $0.75(20)= $37
$22 + $15 =$37
$37 = $37
