What is the x-intercept for the equation 5x-2y=-4?

5x-2y=-4
5x-2(0)=-4
-5x=-4
x=-4/5, so the x-intercept I'd (0,-4/5). Hope it help!

5x - 2y = -4

To find the x-intercept, you make y = 0

So, our equation now looks like this :

5x - 2(0) = -4

Simplify.

5x - 0 = -4

5x = -4

Divide both sides by 5.

x = -4/5

So, our x-intercept is -4/5

* Remember, ALWAYS make y = 0 when solving for the x-intercept*

~Hope I helped!~

Step-by-step explanation:

- Plot each point on the graph corextly using (x,y).

- The line should go verticle

- Since x doesnt change, there is no slope / the line will go up and down infinate

Can somebody please help with this?

Digiron [165]

Answer:

x=8°

y= 96°

z= 96°

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for z first. The whole circle is 360° so if you only count half the angles it will add up to 180°.

Solve for z:

48+36+z=180°

84+z+180°

z=96°

Now that you have z you can solve for x by using only the bottom half of the circle.

z+36+6x=180° *remember z=96

96+36+6x=180

132+6x=180

6x=48

x=8°

Now you can solve for y by either plugging x into an equation or by knowing that opposite angles are equal.

y=96°

Against the wind a commercial airline in South America flew 630 miles in 3.5 hours. With a tailwind the return trip took 3 hours

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

The speed of plane is $195\ mph$ , and speed wind is $15\ mph$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given against the wind the airline flew $630$ miles in $3.5$ hours.

including the tailwind the return trip took $3$ hours.

Let speed of plane is $x$ .

Also, speed of the wind is $y$ .

Now, we will find speed on each case.

Speed against the wind is $\frac{630}{3.5}=180\ mph$

Speed with the wind is $\frac{630}{3}=210\ mph$

Now, we will write the equation

$x+y=210\\x-y=180$

Add these equation we get,

$2x=390\\x=\frac{390}{2}\\x=195\ mph$

Now, plug this value in $x+y=210$ to get speed of wind

$195+y=210\\y=210-195\\y=15\ mph$

So, the speed of plane in still air is $195\ mph$ , and speed of the wind is $15\ mph$ .
