A dealer wishes to make cashew nuts selling at OR 192 per kilogram and peanuts
\n" ); document.write( "selling at OR 168 per kiloram.How much of each nut should be mixed to get 8 kilograms worth OR 174 per kilogram?
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "value + value = value
\n" ); document.write( "192x + 168(8-x) = 8*174
\n" ); document.write( "192x + 168*8 - 168x = 174*8
\n" ); document.write( "24x = 6*8
\n" ); document.write( "x = 2 (# of kilograms of OR 192 cashews
\n" ); document.write( "8-x = 6 (# of kilograms of OR 168 peanuts)
\n" ); document.write( "==============================================
