Answer:
The x-intercept is 2/3 and the y-intercept is -1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find this, we need to note that the x-intercept is the value of x, when y = 0. So we plug in y = 0 and see what the x value is.
3x - 6y = 2
3x - 6(0) = 2
3x = 2
x = 2/3
The y-intercept is the opposite. It is the y value when x = 0. So we do the same with the other term.
3x - 6y = 2
3(0) - 6y = 2
-6y = 2
y = -2/6
y = -1/3
Let the slower train's velocity be x-21
Let the faster train's velocity be x
We know that the approach speed is the sum of both speeds, so x+x -21= 2x-21.
The approach rate is given by Distance/time = 471/3 = 157mpH
x+x-21=157
2x=157+21
2x=178
x=89mph
The slower train is travelling 89-21 = 68mph
The faster train is travelling 89mph.
Answer:
Y=168
Step-by-step explanation:
Y varies directly as X
Y=kx
K is a constant
28=k2
K=28/2 =14
Y=14x
Y=14×12
Y=168
The number is (2√3) / 3
To find the missing number, convert what it says in words to an equation:

Divide both sides by 15:

Take the square root:
