Answer:

15 pounds of pistachio and 25 pounds of cashews

Explanation:

By the given information, we can make a system of equations: Pistachio + Cashew = 40

If we multiply the price of each to the weight, we get 10 cashews + 6 pistachio = 340 pounds. We can use this system of equations to find the amount of each nut.
