to find the x-intercept of a function, we simply set y = 0 and then solve for "x", so, let's first find the equation of it and then set y = 0.

Angles 2 and 6 are corresponding angles, which would explain why they are congruent if lines a and b are parallel, but there is nothing in the problem to explain that any of the angles equals 60 degrees since no measurements were given in the diagram.
The second choice than the fir2nd choice than the first choice for the second question
Let w won games, t tied games, s lose games
s=4w
t=w-5
s+t+w=43
4w+(w-5)+w=43
6w=48
w=7
s=4*7=21 games lost
