Jeremy is making a trail mix containing raisins and peanuts. raisins cost $1.50 per pound. peanuts cost $2.50 per pound. jeremy spends $10.50 to make 5 pounds of trail mix. he uses the table below to organize this information. which equation can jeremy use to determine the amount of raisins in the trail mix? a. r + 1.50 = 1.5r b. r + (5 – r) = 5 c. 1.5r + 2.5(5 – r) = 10.50 d. 1.5r + 2.5(5 – r) = 5

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Jeremy mixes "r" pounds of raisins to make a trail mix.

As the total weight of trial is = 5 pounds

So weight of peanuts in the trail mix will be = (5 - r )

Now cost per pound of raisins = $1.50

so cost of r pounds of raisins = $1.50(r)

Cost of the peanuts = $2.50 per pound

so cost of (5 - r) pounds peanuts = $2.50(5 - r)

Jeremy spends total amount = $10.50

So expression will be

Cost of Raisins + cost of peanuts = cost of trail.

1.5r + 2.5(5 - r) = 10.50

Option C. is the answer.
