Let
x-------> ounces of <span>ground sumac
y-------> ounces of </span><span>ground thyme

we know that
x+y=25------> x=25-y------> equation 1
1.25x+1.5y=1.35*25-----> 1.25x+1.5y=33.75-----> equation 2

substitute equation 1 in equation 2
1.25*[25-y]+1.5y=33.75------> 31.25-1.25y+1.5y=33.75
0.25y=2.5
y=10
x=25-y-----> x=25-10-----> x=15

the answer is
15 </span>ounces of ground sumac
10 ounces of ground thyme

Given the function f(x) = −3x3 + 9x2 − 2x + 3, what part of the function indicates that the left end starts at the top of the gr
shutvik [7]

Answer: The correct option is, The coefficient of the first term.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is,

f(x)=-3x^3+9x^2-2x+3

End behavior of the polynomial function : It is defined as the graph of f(x) as x approaches +\infty and -\infty.

The end behavior of the graph depends on the leading coefficient and degree of the polynomial.

As, the degree of the polynomial is '3'. So, the leading coefficient will determine the structure of the graph.

Therefore, the coefficient of the first term will indicate that the left end starts at the top of the graph.

The graph is also shown below.

The position of an object along a vertical line is given by s(t) = −t3 + 3t2 + 7t + 4, where s is measured in feet and t is meas
saw5 [17]

Answer:

The maximum velocity of the object in the time interval [0, 4] is 10 ft/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The position of an object along a vertical line is given by s(t) = -t^3+3t^2+7t +4, where s is measured in feet and t is measured in seconds.

To find : What is the maximum velocity of the object in the time interval [0, 4]?

Solution :

The velocity is rate of change of distance w.r.t time.

Distance in terms of t is given by,

s(t) = -t^3+3t^2+7t +4

Derivate w.r.t. time,

v(t)=s'(t) = -3t^2+6t+7

It is a quadratic function so its maximum is at vertex of the function.

The x point of the function is given by,

x=-\frac{b}{2a}

Where, a=-3, b=6 and c=7

t=-\frac{6}{2(-3)}

t=-\frac{6}{-6}

t=1

As 1 lie between interval [0,4]

Substitute t=1 in the function,

v(t)= -3(1)^2+6(1)+7

v(t)= -3+6+7

v(1)=10

Th maximum velocity is 10 ft/s.

Therefore, the maximum velocity of the object in the time interval [0, 4] is 10 ft/s.
