2x+3y= 12

To solve for the x intercept, y=0

2x+3(0)= 12

2x= 12

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2x= 12/2x

X= 6

So:(6,0)

To solve for y intercept, x=0

2(0)+3y= 12

3y= 12

Divide both sides by 3

3y/3y= 12/3

Y= 4

So: (0,4)

2x + 3y = 12
2x - 2x + 3y = 12 - 2x
<u>3y</u> = <u>12 - 2x</u>
 3          3
  y = 4 - 2/3x
2x + 3(4 - 2/3x) = 12
2x + 12 - 2x = 12
2x - 2x + 12 = 12
0x + 12 = 12
<u>       -12   -12</u>
        <u>0x</u> = <u>0</u>
         0     0
         x = 0
2(0) + 3y = 12
0 + 3y = 12
<u>-0          -0  </u>
      <u>3y</u> = <u>12</u>
       3      3
        y = 4
  (x, y) = (0, 4)

Estimate 394/24 by first rounding each number so that it has only 1 nonzero digit.
larisa [96]

Answer:

48 million

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 48,000,000 has TWO non-zero numbers, not one, it can't be the

answer.

The largest digit in the given number is the ten-millions digit, so

you want to round to the nearest ten million, rather than the nearest

million.

47,859,600 rounds to 50,000,000, to one significant digit.

Normally, we would say "round to one significant digit," but you

probably have not seen that term. Your question means the same th
