4y = 3x - 2. Find the x and y intercepts of the line

1 answer:

8 0

<span>When solving for the y intercept
4y = 3x - 2
Substitute 0 for x.
4y = 3(0) - 2
Multiply 3 by 0
4y = -2
Divide both sides by 4 so that the only thing remaing on the left side is the variable x.
Final Answer: y = -1/2

When solving for the x-intercept.
</span><span>4y = 3x - 2
Substitue 0 for y
4(0) = 3x - 2
Multiply 4 by 0
0 = 3x - 2
Add 2 to both sides
2 = 3x
divide both sides by 3 so that the only thing remaining on the right side is the variable x.
Final Answer: 2/3 = x</span>

Julio says, "If you subtract 17 from my number and multiply the difference by negative 4, the result is negative 92." What is

stich3 [128]

"If you subtract 17 from my number and multiply the difference by negative 4, the result is negative 92.

n= number

(n-17)*(-4) = -92

distribute

-4 *n - 17*(-4) = -92

-4n +68 = -92

subtract 68 from each side

-4n +68-68 = -92 -68

-4n = -160

divide each side by -4

-4n/-4 = -160/-4

n = 40

Julio's number is 40

Ella collects 50 bottles to recycle. Of the bottles she collects, 19 are plastic and the rest are glass.

nekit [7.7K]

QUESTION A

The total number of bottles Ella collected is
$50$

The number of bottles that are plastic is

$19$

The percentage of bottles that are plastic is

$= \frac{number \: of \: plastic \: bottles}{total \: number \: of \: bottes} \times 100\%$

$= \frac{19}{50} \times 100\%$

$= 19 \times 2\%$
$= 38\%$

Therefore 38% of the bottles are plastic.

QUESTION B

The total number of bottles that are glass is
$50 - 19 = 31$

The total number of bottles Ella collected is
$50$

The percentage of bottles that is glass is
$= \frac{number \: of \: glass \: bottles}{total \: number \: of \: bottles} \times 100\%$

$= \frac{31}{50} \times 100\%$

$= 31 \times 2\%$
$= 62\%$

Therefore 62% of the bottles are glass
