Question 999995: a store mixes brazilian coffee worth $11 per kilogram and venezuelan coffee worth $14 per kilogram. The mixture is to sell for $13 per kilogram. Find how much of each should be used to make a 132-kilogram mixture Answer by josgarithmetic(39617) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Price is a concentration. Percent is also often used as a concentration. Look at another example demonstration using a single variable for one of the coffees.
All two-part mixture problems fitting this form can be handled this way (although you can also choose to use two variables instead of just one variable.)
