Find the x and y intercepts 5y + 3x = 15

1 answer:

8 0

First, find the x-intercept.

The x-intercept will be at the point (x, 0) where x is any real number. If we substitute the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate for the x and y variables in the equation, we can solve for x.

5y + 3x = 15
5(0) + 3x = 15
3x + 15
x = 5

We found the x-intercept now find the y-intercept with the same process.

The y-intercept will be at the point (0, y) where y is any real number.

5y + 3x = 15
5y + 3(0) = 15
5y = 15
y = 3

So, the x-intercept is (5, 0) and the y-intercept is (0, 3)

How do you convert 16.7 inches to yards and then do it in scientific notation?

dexar [7]

To convert the value from inches to yards, we need a conversion factor to multiply it to the value that will equate it to yards. From a conversion table, we see that 1 inch is equal to 0.02778 yards. We multiply this value.

16.7 inches ( 0.02778 yards / 1 inch ) = 0.464 yards = 4.6 x 10^-1 yards

Christy draws 3 cards from the deck one at a time without replacement. What is the probability of selecting the cards in the ord

Inga [223]

Start with a deck of 52 cards. Draw 1 card. Probability of drawing a diamond first:

$\dfrac{\binom{13}1}{\binom{52}1}$

Now draw another single card from the deck, which now contains 51 cards. Probability of drawing a spade:

$\dfrac{\binom{13}1}{\binom{51}1}$

Draw 1 last card. The deck has 50 cards left, and 12 of these are diamonds. Probability of drawing a diamond:

$\dfrac{\binom{12}1}{\binom{50}1}$

So the probability of drawing a diamond, then a spade, then another diamond is

$\dfrac{\binom{13}1}{\binom{52}1}\cdot\dfrac{\binom{13}1}{\binom{51}1}\cdot\dfrac{\binom{12}1}{\binom{50}1}=\dfrac{13}{850}$

Virty [35]

Answer:

B.6

Step-by-step explanation:

When we add and subtract, we do it from left to right

13+ (-12) - (-5)

13+-12

13-12 = 1

1 - -5

A negative negative is a positive

1 +5
