Answer:

  • Earl Grey: 150 pounds
  • Orange Pekoe: 450 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "e" represent the number of pounds of Earl Grey tea required for the mix. Then (600-e) is the number of pounds of Orange Pekoe tea required. The total cost of the mix is ...

  6·e + 4·(600 -e) = 4.50·600

  2e = 600·(4.50 -4.00) . . . . . simplify, subtract 4·600

  e = 300/2 = 150 . . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

Required are 150 pounds of Earl Grey and 450 pounds of Orange Pekoe.
