A man wants to make up 100 one-pound jars of nuts to sell for 66 cents a jar. He plans to use 40 pounds of nuts worth 75 cents a pound. What should be the unit price of the other type of nuts he uses

x = 60 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

The man wants to make up 100 one-pound jars of nuts, it means he will need 100 pounds of nuts. He plans to use 40 pounds of one type of nuts, so he needs 60 pounds of the other type of nuts to get 100 pounds.

Now, with this we can write a linear equation:

(40*0.75)+(60*x) = 100*0.66 (1)

Where:

Let's solve the equation (1) for x:

Therefore, x = 60 cents.
