A store sells two different types of coffee beans; the more expensive one sells for $8 per pound, and the cheaper one sells for $4 per pound. The beans are mixed to provide a mixture of 50 pounds that sells for $6.40 per pound. How much of each type of coffee bean should be used to create 50 pounds of the mixture?

Respuesta :

You can use Guess and Check and divide the 50 pounds into 2 parts. Multiply the price for both and do square root for the prices. Then at the 2 square roots and see if they add up to $6.40. If not, then divide the 50 pounds into something else, like 30 and 20 or something like that.
