What is the x-intercept for the following linear equation:

1 answer:

3 0

The "x-intercept" occurs when y=0, because it is at this point that the equation touches the x axis. So if you plug in y=0 into the equation you can solve for the x coordinate.

4x-2(0)-8=0

4x-8=0

4x=8

x=2

So the x-intercept is the point (2,0)

Find the value of x .just put the equation as the answer plz

Inessa [10]

Answer:

ok so the value of x is 147°.

the only angle we know is 42, we know a full rotation is 360° so we can deduct that 42° + 2x+1 + -124+x = 360.

minus 42 from both sides and solve for x,

we get 3x = 441; x = 147.

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

9670 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The height given (8219.5 ft) is 85% OF ORIGINAL, hence original is much higher. But how do we figure this out?

we translate word problem to equation.

8219.5 IS 85% of TOTAL

Firstly, 85% = 85/100 = 0.85

Remember, is means =

of means multiplication

So we have:

8219.5 = 0.85 * Total

Hence, total = [let total be 7]

8219.5 = 0.85 * t

t = 8219.5/0.85 = 9670 feet
