Answer: x-intercept :12 & y-intercept ;-8
Step-by-step explanation:To find the x-intercept ,substitute in 0 for y and solve for x .
8x-12y=96
8x-12(0)=96
8x=96 (divide both # by 8)
x=12
To find the y-intercept ,substitute in 0 for x and solve for y .
8(0)-12y=96
-12y=96(Divide by -12 both )
y=-8

Step-by-step explanation:
Significant Figures Rules:
- Any non-zero digit is significant.
- Any trailing zeros after the decimal is significant.
- Any zeros between 2 significant digits are significant.
- Zeroes before significant numbers in the decimal place are NOT significant; they are placeholders.
(a)
0.004816 - the zeros are placeholders, so they do not count as sig figs.
(b)
50.00168 - the zeros are between 2 significant figures, so they do count as sig figs.
(c)
0.0009812 - the zeros are placeholders, so they do not count as sig figs
Using Sine.
Sine = Opposite / Hypotenuse
sin 60° = a / (6√3) But sin60° = √3/2
√3/2 = a/(6√3)
Cross multiply
2*a = 6√3 * √3
2a = 6 * √(3*3)
2a = 6*3
a = 6*3/2
a = 3*3 = 9
Option E.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
The pieces are 55 inches, 55 inches and 46 inches long
Step-by-step explanation:
A 13ft board is to be cut into three pieces consisting of two equal length ones. The third one is 9in shorter than each of the other two.
Let us first convert the length of the board to inches:
1 ft = 12 inches
13 ft = 12 * 13 = 156 inches
Let the length of each of the other two pieces be x.
Therefore, the length of the third piece is (x - 9)
Therefore, the sum of the lengths of the three pieces is equal to 156 inches. This means that:
x + x + (x - 9) = 156
x + x + x - 9 = 156
=> 3x = 156 + 9
3x = 165
x = 165 / 3 = 55 inches
Each of the first two pieces are 55 inches long.
The length of the third piece will be:
55 - 9 = 46 inches
The pieces are 55 inches, 55 inches and 46 inches long.
