Answer:

  • 3.6 pounds of granola and 5.4 pounds of nuts

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the required granola be x pounds, then amount of nuts is 9 - x.

<u>The price of the mixture is as below equation:</u>

  • 6.5x + 9(9 - x) = 8*9
  • 6.5x + 81 - 9x = 72
  • 81 - 2.5x = 72
  • 2.5x = 81 - 72
  • 2.5x = 9
  • x = 9/2.5
  • x = 3.6

<u>Find the amount of nuts:</u>

  • 9 - 3.6 = 5.4

The parametric equations x = x1 + (x2 − x1)t, y = y1 + (y2 − y1)t where 0 ≤ t ≤ 1 describe the line segment that joins the point
Ulleksa [173]

It is a bit tedious to write 6 equations, but it is a straightforward process to substitute the given point values into the form provided.


For segment ab. (x1, y1) = (1, 1); (x2, y2) = (3, 4).

... x = 1 + t(3-1)

... y = 1 + t(4-1)

ab = {x=1+2t, y=1+3t}


For segment bc. (x1, y1) = (3, 4); (x2, y2) = (1, 7).

... x = 3 + t(1-3)

... y = 4 + t(7-4)

bc = {x=3-2t, y=4+3t}


For segment ca. (x1, y1) = (1, 7); (x2, y2) = (1, 1).

... x = 1 + t(1-1)

... y = 7 + t(1-7)

ca = {x=1, y=7-6t}

Name the property the equation illustrates. 8 + 5.3 = 5.3 + 8
VMariaS [17]
The answer to the question is letter "D. Commutative Property of Addition". The property states that if there are two numbers which we may represent by a and b, the value of a + b is equal to the value of b + a. The given, 8 + 5.3 = 5.3 + 8 is an example of this property.
