PLEASE SHOW WORK A coffee distributor needs to mix a(n) Gualtemala Antigua coffee blend that normally sells for $10.30 per pound with a Tanzanian coffee blend that normally sells for $13.80 per pound to create 60 pounds of a coffee that can sell for $12.46 per pound. How many pounds of each kind of coffee should they mix? They must mix pounds of the Gualtemala Antigua Blend pounds of the Tanzanian Blend. (Round your answers to the nearest whole number of pounds.)

23 pounds of the Gualtemala Antigua Blend and 37 pounds of the Tanzanian Blend

Step-by-step explanation:

you need to make a system of equations to solve this.

First lets make x be the pounds of Gualtemala Antigua coffee blend and y the pounds of Tanzanian coffee blend

we know we need 60 pounds total so first equation is

x+y=60

Next we will make an equation based on the money information

10.30x + 13.80y = 12.46(60)

10.30x + 13.80y = 747.60

So our system of equations is

x + y = 60

10.30x + 13.80y = 747.60

I will solve this by using substitution. first rewrite x+y=60 to y=60-x

now i can substitute that into the other equation for y and solve for x

10.30x + 13.80(60-x) = 747.60

10.30x + 828 -13.80x = 747.60

-3.5x + 828 = 747.60

-3.5x = -80.4

x = 23  (rounded from 22.9714 since they requested that)

now I can use this solution to solve for y by plugging into one of the original equations

x + y =60

23 + y =60

y = 37

Finally we can say that they must mix 23 pounds of the Gualtemala Antigua Blend and 37 pounds of the Tanzanian Blend.

i would say the third one.

step-by-step explanation: liner would mean in a line and the only one that doesn't look like it's even thinking about forming a line would be the third one
