Question 1203944
<br>
This month's blend uses twice as much of B as A, so the blend is 2/3 of B and 1/3 of A.<br>
The price per pound of the blend, using 2 parts of B and 1 part of A, is<br>
{{{(2(5.15)+1(4.10))/3=4.80}}}<br>
Since the total cost of the blend is $288, the number of pounds is 288/4.80 = 60.<br>
One-third of the blend is type A; 1/3 of 60 is 20.<br>
ANSWER: 20 pounds of type A<br>
