Let x be the amount of Columbian coffee in the mixture and y the amount of Sumatra coffee in the mixture, then
x + y = 1 . . . (1)
9.25x + 14.25y = 12.50 . . . (2)

(1) x 9.25 => 9.25x + 9.25y = 9.25 . . . (3)

(2) - (3) => 5y = 3.25 => y = 3.25/5 = 0.65

From (1), x + 0.65 = 1 => x = 1 - 0.65 = 0.35

1 pound of the mixture contains 0.35 Columbian coffee and 0.65 Sumatra coffee
Therefore, 12 pounds of the mixture will contain 0.35 x 12 = 4.2 pounds of Columbian coffee and 0.65 x 12 = 7.8 pounds of Sumatra coffee

Show that the line integral is independent of path by finding a function f such that ?f = f. c 2xe?ydx (2y ? x2e?ydy, c is any p
Juli2301 [7.4K]
I'm reading this as

\displaystyle\int_C2xe^{-y}\,\mathrm dx+(2y-x^2e^{-y})\,\mathrm dy

with \nabla f=(2xe^{-y},2y-x^2e^{-y}).

The value of the integral will be independent of the path if we can find a function f(x,y) that satisfies the gradient equation above.

You have

\begin{cases}\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=2xe^{-y}\\\\\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=2y-x^2e^{-y}\end{cases}

Integrate \dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x} with respect to x. You get

\displaystyle\int\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}\,\mathrm dx=\int2xe^{-y}\,\mathrm dx
f=x^2e^{-y}+g(y)

Differentiate with respect to y. You get

\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=\dfrac{\partial}{\partial y}[x^2e^{-y}+g(y)]
2y-x^2e^{-y}=-x^2e^{-y}+g'(y)
2y=g'(y)

Integrate both sides with respect to y to arrive at

\displaystyle\int2y\,\mathrm dy=\int g'(y)\,\mathrm dy
y^2=g(y)+C
g(y)=y^2+C

So you have

f(x,y)=x^2e^{-y}+y^2+C

The gradient is continuous for all x,y, so the fundamental theorem of calculus applies, and so the value of the integral, regardless of the path taken, is

\displaystyle\int_C2xe^{-y}\,\mathrm dx+(2y-x^2e^{-y})\,\mathrm dy=f(4,1)-f(1,0)=\frac9e

the description of a TV is based on the diagonal length. if the height of a TV is 10 inches and the width is 7 inches, what is t
borishaifa [10]
To calculate it use pythagoras: a^2+b^2=c^2
7^2+10^2=49+100=149

calculate the square root: \sqrt{149}=12.2
so the diagonal is about 12.2 inches long

Answer:

1.function 1 has a greater rate of change than function 2

3. Function 1 has a greater y-intercept than function 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the table we can find the slope using

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

m = (29-5)/ (8-0)

     = 24/8

    = 3

The rate of change for the table is 3

The y intercept is (0,5)  


Using the graph  (0,-1)  and (2,0)

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

m = (0--1)/ (2-0)

     = (0+1)/2

    = 1/2

The y intercept is (0,-1)


Since 3>1/2 , function 1 has a greater rate of change than function 2

Since 5>-1, function 1 has a greater y-intercept than function 2
