Answer:

Necesitamos agregar 40 libras del café La Finca

Step-by-step explanation:

Sea x el número de libras de café de La Finca a mezclar.

Entonces, la cantidad total de libras que obtendremos en la mezcla será (x + 80) libras.

Ahora trabajemos con los precios; Tenemos x libras de La Finca a $ 5 por libra, con 80 libras de café a $ 2 por libra para dar una mezcla de (x + 80) a $ 3 Así, sumaremos el precio de La Finca más la otra variante para llegar al costo de la nueva mezcla.

Matemáticamente;

5 (x) + 2 (80) = 3 (x + 80)

5x + 160 = 3x + 240

5x -3x = 240-160

2x = 80

x = 80/2 x = 40
