Mathematics
1 answer:
Alexandra [31]3 years ago
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)

Grace [21]
Sample space = 17 + 7 + 4 = 28
P(pink) = 7/28

What is -7n-4=24 lol i hate homework
Montano1993 [528]
It's a simple linear equation in 'n'.  There's only one number that 'n' can be
that will make the equation a true statement.  That number is called the
'solution' to the equation.  Here's one way to find it:

You said that                       <u> -7n - 4  =  24</u>

Add  4  to each side:           -7n       =  28

Multiply each side by  -1 :    7n       =  -28

Divide each side by  7 :         <em>n        =  -4</em>

Homework is the only way for most people to learn stuff.
