Here:x = the amount of seeds, y = the amount of dried fruit.The system of equations:
x + y = 101.5 x + 2.5 y = 2.2 * 10------------------------------x = 10 - y1.5 * ( 10 - y ) + 2.5 y = 2215 - 1.5 y + 2.5 y = 22y = 22 - 15y = 7x = 10 - 7 = 3Answer:3 ounces of the seed and 7 ounces of the dried fruit.
