Ms. Johnson owns a spice shop. She combines 5 pounds of dried rose hips and 1 pound of five-spice powder to make a new seasoning. How much should she charge for 1 ounce of the new seasoning if she can sell the dried rose hips for $8 per pound and the five-spice powder for $11 per ounce?

5 lbs = 80 oz, so the mixture is worth
80(8/16) + 16(11) = 96x
x = $2.25/oz
