Find the selling price per pound of a coffee mixture made from 8 pounds of coffee that sells for $9.20 per pound and 12 pounds of coffee that costs $5.50 per pound. Express your answer as a decimal

Answer :

Answer:

$6.98

Explanation:

Cost of 8 pounds of first mixture at 9.20 = $73.60

Cost of 12 pounds of the second mixture at 5.50 = $66

Amount of mixture = (8 + 12) = 20 pounds

73.60 + 66 = 20x

139.6 = 20x

x = $6.98
