Answer:

$1.72

Step-by-step explanation:

5 pounds of cashew nuts at $1.80 per pound is worth

5 x $1.80 = $9.00

4 pounds of peanuts at $1.62 per pound is worth 4 x $1.62 = $6.48.

The total value of the 9-pound mixture is $9.00 + $6.48 = $15.48. The value of the mixture per pound is found by dividing the total value by the number of pounds. $15.48 / 9 = $1.72

hope this helps!!:)
