cost of dried fruit per pound=2.5 $/pound
cost of nuts per pound =2 $/pound
total cost=225$ =cost of dried fruit +total cost of nuts
To find the cost of dried fruit we need to multiply cost of dried fruit per pound and the number of bounds hence 2.5 x where x is the number of bounds
which is the total cost of dried fruit and consequently 2y is total cost of nuts where y is the weight of nuts in pound
