The Old-Fashioned but Newfangled Candy Company wants to mix some of its $5.50 per pound Tropical Taffy, with 100 pounds of its $6.25 per pound Passion Fruit Taffy to create a $6 per pound taffy called Tropical Passion. How many pounds of the $5.50 per pound Tropical Taffy should the company use?​

50

Step-by-step explanation:

x= the number of pounds of the tropical taffy that should be used

You need to take the value of the Tropical Taffy + the value of the Passion Fruit taffy to = the value of Tropical Passion

value- price per pound times the number of pounds

Your equation is going to look like this-->

5.50x+6.25(100)=6(x+100)

5.50x+625=6x+600

-5.50x        -5.50x

625=0.5x+600

-600         -600

25=0.5x

50=x

Hope this helps!
