Answer:

X-intercept states that the graph crosses the x-axis.

Substitute y = 0 and solve for x.

As per the statement:

Harry's school is selling t-shirts to raise money for the archery team.

The school will receive 35% of the total sales which can be modeled by the equation:

y = 0.35x

where, x represents the total number of sales and y represents the total cost of sale.

By definition of x-intercept:

0 = 0.35x

⇒x = 0

Therefore, the x-intercept in the equation represents:

The number of sales when no money has been raised.

Which is the better buy, 7 pounds for $8.47 or 9 pounds for $11.07?
wel
Let us take the case of 7 pounds for $8.47 first.
7 pounds of a product costs = 8.47 dollars
Then
1 pound of the same product will cost = (8.47/7) dollars
                                                             = 1.21 dollars
Now let us take the case of 9 pounds for $11.07
9 pounds of a product costs = 11.07 dollars
Then
1 pound of the same product will cost = (11.07/9) pounds
                                                             = 1.23 dollars
So from the above deductions we can see that 9 pounds for $11.07 is a better buy than 7 pounds for $8.47. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. In future you can use this method for solving similar problems.

Answer:

Base = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle can be calculated as:

Area = 0.5 x Base x Height

The values of the area and the height are given in order to find the length.

A= 52 in^2

Height= 13

First we have to find the base or the length. Using the values above we can set up the equation as:

1. 52= (0.5)(13)(b)

2. 52/0.5(13)

3. b=8

Answer: The length of the guitar or the base would be 8 inches.

I hope this helps and for future problems regarding this topic use the formula above!!

Formula: 0.5 x Base x Height
