A coffee shop plans to blend a coffee that sells for $12 per pound with coffee that sells for $9 per pound to produce a blend that sells for $10 per pound. How much of each should be used to produce 20 pounds of the new blend?

20/3 pounds of coffee that costs $12 per pound  and 40/3 pounds  of coffee that costs $9 per pound are required

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount of coffee that costs $12 per pound

Cost of x amount of this type coffee = 12x

We are supposed to find How much of each should be used to produce 20 pounds of the new blend that costs $10 per pound

So, Amount of coffee required that costs $9 per pound = 20-x

Cost of (20-x) amount of this type of coffee = 9(20-x)

So,

Amount of coffee that costs $12 per pound required is

Amount of coffee that costs $9 per pound required = 20-x=

Hence 20/3 pounds of coffee that costs $12 per pound  and 40/3 pounds  of coffee that costs $9 per pound are required

option 1

data plot with   3 dots over 33, 1 dot over 34, 2 dots over 35, no dot over 36, 1 dot over 37, 2 dots over 38, 4 dots over 39, and 2 dot over 40.

answer: 1,380

step-by-step explanation:

1: you turn %15 into a decimal by moving the decimal point two places to the left.

2: and then you multiply .15 by 1,200 , which will get you 180.00

3: from there you will add 180 to 1,200

4: which will get you 1,380
