7. Objective 2 Compute the Weighted Mean

9. EXAMPLE Computed a Weighted Mean Bob goes the “Buy the Weigh” Nut store and creates his own bridge mix. He combines 1 pound of raisins, 2 pounds of chocolate covered peanuts, and 1.5 pounds of cashews. The raisins cost $1.25 per pound, the chocolate covered peanuts cost $3.25 per pound, and the cashews cost $5.40 per pound. What is the cost per pound of this mix.
