Anyone good at Algebra Word Problems?

I just need help setting up the equations to solve the problem. It is the only problem in my homework that uses the word "blend." I can solve it if I have the equations. 

The Roasted Bean charges $17.00 per pound for Fair Trade Organic Mexican coffee and $15.00 per pound for Fair Trade Organic Peruvian coffee.

How much of each type should be used to make a 28 - lb blend that sells for $16.00 per pound?
