The student is incorrect, the actual x-intercept is (5, 0).

<h3>Is the student correct or incorrect?</h3>

Here we have the equation:

x + 2y = 5

The student says that the x-intercept is the point (0, 5).

So if you look at the point you already can see that the student is incorrect, this is because the x-intercept always must have a y-value of 0. (the graph only intercepts the x-axis when y = 0).

So the point (0, 5) can't be an x-intercept.

For the given function:

x +2y = 5

The x-intercept is given by:

x + 2*0 = 5

x = 5

So it is (5 , 0).

A house that costs $125,400 appreciates at a rate of 3% each year. What is the value of the
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

The value after three years is $137,027.97

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the value of the home after 3 years

Generally, we have the exponential formula as follows;

y = P(1 + r)^t

where P is the original cost which is $124,400

r is the rate of increase which is 3% = 3/100 = 0.03

t is the time which is 3 years

Substituting these values;

y = 125400(1 + 0.03)^3 = $137,027.97

Twenty eight slips of paper are numbered 1 through 28 and are distributed among a group of people. A random number generator is
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Option C is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a random number generator is used to select a single number between 1 and 28, inclusively;

For a fair decision to be made during the process, the number of persons in the set must be a divisor of 28.

Let's list the divisors of 28:

The divisors of 28 are {1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28}

The only option that contains one of the divisors is option C which is 7.
