8x-3y=48 what is the x and y intercept

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alexxx [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x-intercept = 6

y-intercept = -16

Step-by-step explanation:

8x-3y=48

Step 1

To find the y-intercept, we rewrite the equation into the form,

y=mx+c

Where c = y-intercept (this means that the straight line cuts the y-axis on a graph)

8x-3y=48

8x-48=3y

3y=8x-48

y=8x/3 - 48/3

y=8x/3 - 16

y=2.67x-16

Comparing y=mx+c and y=2.67x-16,

c corresponds to -16.

Therefore, the y-intercept is -16

Step 2

To find the x-intercept, we rewrite the equation into the form,

x=ay+c

8x-3y=48

8x=3y+48

x = (3/8)y + 48/8

x = 0.38y + 6

Comparing x=ay+c and x=0.38y+6,

c corresponds to 6

Therefore, the x-intercept is 6

Convert the fraction 3/4 to decimal form to get 3/4 = 0.75

To factor out 3/4, we divide each term by 3/4 or 0.75
It might be easier to divide by 0.75 to avoid two division symbols

So (3/4)z+6 = 0.75z+6
Divide each term (0.75z and 6) by 0.75 which is what we want to factor out

0.75z/0.75 = z
6/0.75 = 8

Therefore, 
0.75z+6 = 0.75*(z+8)

Note how we can distribute the 0.75 back through to each term inside (z and 8) and we'll end up with 0.75z+6 again.

The answer in fraction form is \frac{3}{4}(z+8) which is 3/4 outside the parenthesis multiplied by the group (z+8)

The back of Tom's property is a creek. Tom would like to enclose a rectangular area, using the creek as one side and fencing for
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

76,050 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

If the area must be rectangular, let L be the length of the side opposite to the creek, and S be the length of the remaining two sides.

The perimeter of the fencing and the area of the pasture are:

780 = L+2S\\A= LS\\\\L=780-2S\\A=-2S^2+780S

The value of S for which the derivate of the area function is zero is the length of S that maximizes the area of pasture:

\frac{dA}{dS}=0=-4S+780\\S= 195\\L=780-(2*195)=390

The maximum possible area is:

A_{MAX}=390*195=76,050\ ft^2
