A party mix is made by adding nuts that sell for ​$2.502.50 per kg to a cereal mixture that sells for ​$11 per kg. How much of each should be added to obtain 6060 kg of a mix that will sell for ​$2.102.10 per​ kg

Respuesta :

Answer:

N =  44 kg

C = 60- 44 = 16 kg

Explanation:

given,

cost of nuts =  ​$2.50 per kg

cost of cereal mixture =  ​$1 per kg

so the mix price should be = $ 2.10

total amount of added weight = 60kg

    N  +  C  =  60 kg

now

 N × 2.50  +  C × 1  =  60 × 2.10

  N × 2.50  +  (60-N) × 1  =  126

     1.5 N = 126-60

           N =  44 kg

          C = 60- 44 = 16 kg
