If to produce 1 kg of mix A costs $12.50, 1 kg of mix B costs $12.40 and 1 kg of mix C costs $11.70, determine the cost per kilogram of each different kind of nut. Hence, find the cost per kg to produce a mix containing 400 gram of Cashews nuts, 200 gram of Macadamias nuts and 400 grams of Brazil nuts.

Question

If to produce 1 kg of mix A costs $12.50, 1 kg of mix B costs $12.40 and 1 kg of mix
C costs $11.70, determine the cost per kilogram of each different kind of nut. Hence,
find the cost per kg to produce a mix containing 400 gram of Cashews nuts, 200 gram
of Macadamias nuts and 400 grams of Brazil nuts.

A mixed nut company uses Cashews nuts, Macadamias nuts and Brazil nuts to make 3
gourmet mixes. The table below indicates the weight in hundreds of gram of each kind
of nut required to make a kilogram of mix.
