Jordan has gone into the nut business. he wants to make a mixture of walnuts and cashews that cost $1.00 per pound. how many pounds of walnuts that cost $0.80 per pound must be mixed with 8 pounds of cashews that costs $1.25 per pound to make his mixture of nuts cost $1.00 per pound? answers area.) 16 lbs. b.) 11 lbs. c.) 20 lbs. d.) 10 lbs. explain your process in solving/your set up of the equation.

correct answer:

b.(19,-2)

p ÷ r = tan(x)

step-by-step explanation:

given that there is a figure below shows a right triangle: a right triangle is shown with hypotenuse equal to q units and the length of the legs equal to p units and r units.

graph is missing so i will create the graph as per given information.

the angle between the legs having lengths p units and q units is y degrees. the angle between the legs having lengths r units and q units is x degrees.

now we need to find about what is p ÷ r equal to.

so we can use trigonometric ratio tan(x)=[altitude]/[base] to find the value of p ÷ r, because p is the altitude and r is the base.

p ÷ r=tan(x)

hence final answer is p ÷ r=tan(x).
