Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

So the y-intercept is not given by your table because there is no x that is listed as 0.

But don't fret; we can still find it.

Let's see if the function is linear by seeing if we have the same slope per two points in the table.

For the first pair ( the points (-2,16) and (1,4) ), x increased by 3 and the y decreased by 12 so the slope there is -12/3=-4.

Now looking at the next pair ( the points (1,4) and (2,0) ), x increased by 1 while y decreased by 4 so the slope is -4/1=-4.

So the function appears to be linear.

So the slope-intercept form of a line is y=mx+b where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

We already found the slope from earlier which is m=-4.

So the equation so far is y=-4x+b.

Now to find b, the y-intercept, we need to use a point (x,y) on the line along with y=-4x+b.

Let's see my favorite on the list of points is (2,0).

y=-4x+b with (x,y)=(2,0)

0=-4(2)+b

0=-8+b

8=b

So the y-intercept is 8.

Viktor [21]
I'm presuming that the 'large cube' is made from 8 cubes the same size as the 8 cubes in the long row. They both have the same volume, the only difference between them is that they are arranged in a different order. Hope this helps. If not feel free to ask again and give more information.

Craig Campanella and Edie Hall both have night jobs. Craig has every thirteenth night and Edie has every Fifth night off. How of
Andrews [41]

Craig has every 13th night and Edie has every 5th night off.

You have to find LCM - the Least Common Multiple that is the smallest ("least") number that both 13 and 5 will divide into.

Since numbers 13 and 5 are both prime, then LCM(13,5)=13·5=65.

This means, they will have the same every 65th night off.
