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

Which is the graph of y = 1/x?
irina1246 [14]

<u>answer:</u> the first graph

<u>explanation:</u>

it would not be the second one because it is a slope (y = mx + b) and so would be the third choice.

i don't think it would be the last one because it's going only up to 40. which the equation say only y = 1/x and it's not a big number equation.

hope this helps! ❤  from peachimin

i attached this image which is sorta similar to the the to this equation:
