Answer 1

The question about mixing nuts and cereal to reach a price per kg target cannot be answered with the provided information, which relates to calorie content and relative pricing rather than cost calculations for mixed goods.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student's question seems to be related to finding the correct mixture of nuts and cereal to achieve a certain weight and price target. However, the provided reference information does not directly relate to this question. Instead, the references discuss calorie content and the relative price of goods. For the specific mixture of nuts and cereal that achieves 40 kg at $1.30 per kg, we lack the individual prices of nuts and cereal per kg. Without this information, we cannot calculate the cost-effective mixture.
