Answer: The y-intercept is -12
The x-intercept is 8
Step-by-step explanation: Factor out 3
Divide all by 3 to simplify.
9x - 6y = 72 is equivalent to
3x - 2y = 24
At this point, you can substitute 0 for x and solve for y
3(0) -2y = 24. -2y/-2 = 24/-2
y = -12
And substitute 0 for y and solve for x.
3x -2(0) = 24. 3x/3 = 24/3
x = 8
OR Change to slope intercept form:
y = mx + b. b is the y intercept.
-2y = -3x + 24. Solve for y.
Divide all by-2
y = 3x/2 - 12.
The y-intercept is -12
To find the x-intercept, substitute 0 for y and solve for x.
0 = 3x/2 -12 Add 12 to both sides.
12 = 3x/2. Multiply both sides by 2/3
8 = x
The x-intercept is 8
Well you see, when you have to bases and powers and u don't subtract the exponents the reciprocal wouldn't be the same as the exponents.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of miles = x
C ost = Base + 0.84x
Cost = 220.71 dollars
Base = 19.95
220.71 = 19.95 + 0.84x Subtract 19.95 from both sides
220,71 - 19.95 = 0.84 x Combine
200.76 = 0.84x Divide by 0,84
200.76/0.84 = x
x = 239 miles.
Remark: The trick to this question is to make sure that total Cost, the Base amount, and cost / mile are all in dollars. Don't mix and match.
Answer:
d. The mapping represents y as a function of x, because each x-value corresponds to exactly one y-value.
Step-by-step explanation:
This would be a function as long as one x-value doesn't correspond to two y-values. If two x-values correspond to one y-value though, it still represents a function.
