How many pounds of candy selling for 2.25 a pound should be added to two pounds of candy selling for 3.75 a pound to create a blend which will sell for 2.85?
$2.25x + $3.75*2= $2.85x
x=12.5
I don't know if this is right so.... I'll get back to you.
===================================
Answer #2:
(2.25 x) + (3.75 * 2) = (2.85) * (x + 2)
(2.25 x) - (2.85 x) = (2.85 - 3.75) * 2 = -1.8
0.6 x = 1.8
x = 1.8/0.6 = 3 pounds
Check:
3 pounds @ $2.25 costs $6.75
2 pounds @ $3.75 costs $7.50
Total . . . 5 pounds, costing $14.25
$14.25/5 = $2.85 yay
