What are the x-intercept and y-intercept of the graph of y=−12x+4

1 answer:

5 0

The x intercept is where the line crosses the x axis or where y=0
the y intercept is where the line crosses the y axis or where x=0

xintercept
set y=0 and solve for x
0=-12x+4
add 12x both sides
12x=4
divide by 12
x=1/3
the x intercept is 1/3
not listed so I assume it is y=-1/2x+4, which yeilds x=-2

x intercept
using y=-1/2x+4
set x=0
y=-1/2(0)+4
y=0+4
y=4
y intercept is 4

assumign you forgot the slash to make the fraction to make
y=-1/2x+4

x intercept is -2
y intercept is 4

Fifteen less than twice a number is 21. What is the missing number? |

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

2y - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

well 15 LESS than TWICE a number. okay so let’s start off by making a variable for the unknown number.... y. the variable is y. so now we have to think, TWICE that number, but we don’t know the number.

Now that we have the variable and we know it has to be doubled, let’s start off making the first half... we can out that into 2y. which is 2 multiplied by the unknown number.

now that we have the first half done, we have to take the 15 less. Less can mean or subtract in this kind of situation. but for this certain scenario, it will be subtraction. so the equation would be 2y - 15.

I'm confused- how do I form the equation with 2 pts?

klio [65]

Answer:

the equation of the line is y = -3x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that since (0, -6) is the y-intercept, we can write the slope-intercept equation of the line as y = mx - 6. The other given point is (-2, 0) (which happens to be the x-intercept also). Starting with y = mx - 6, replace y with 0 and x with -2:

0 = m(-2) - 6. We now solve this for the slope, m: 0 = -2m - 6 becomes

2m = -6, or m = -3.

With m = -3 and b = -6, the equation of the line is y = -3x - 6
