Chapter 3, Problem 35P
A food company manufactures five types of 8 oz Trail mix packages using different mixtures of peanuts, almonds, walnuts, raisins, and M&Ms. The mixtures have the following compositions:
| Peanuts (oz) | Almonds (oz) | Walnuts (oz) | Raisins (oz) | M&Ms (oz) | |
| Mix 1 | 3 | 1 | 1 | 2 | 1 |
| Mix 2 | 1 | 2 | 1 | 3 | 1 |
| Mix 3 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 3 | 3 |
| Mix 4 | 2 | 0 | 3 | 1 | 2 |
| Mix 5 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 0 | 2 |
How many packages of each mix can be manufactured if 128 lb of peanuts, 118 lb of almonds, 112 lb of walnuts, 112 lb of raisins, and 104 lb of M&Ms are available? Write a system of linear equations and solve.
