I have been working on a few problems that I can't seem to get the answer too. If anyone can help I would appreciate it.
1. A shopkeeper sells raisins for $3.20 per pound and nuts for $2.40 per pound. He decides to mix the raisins and nuts and sell 50lb. of the mixture for $2.72 per pound. What quantities of raisins and nuts should be used?
2. 2x-x/2+x+1/4=6x
This one I got 1/17. Not sure if its right?
3. a^3-b^6
Thanks for any help.
