40 grams of $ 1 per gram and 160 grams of $ 0.80 per gram should be used.

Since a grower wishes to mix a one peso per gram chemical with 80 cent per gram chemical to produce mixture of 200 grams chemical which he can sell for 84 cent a gram, to determine how many grams of each price of chemical should he use you must perform the following calculation:

  • (150 x 1 + 50 x 0.8) / 2 = 95
  • (140 x 1 + 60 x 0.8) / 2 = 94
  • (100 x 1 + 100 x 0.8) / 2 = 90
  • (50 x 1 + 150 x 0.8) / 2 = 85
  • (40 x 1 + 160 x 0.8) / 2 = 84

Therefore, 40 grams of $ 1 per gram and 160 grams of $ 0.80 per gram should be used.
