For y-intercept, x=0, as any y-intercept would be located at a x-coordinate of 0.

Put 0 into x:

4(0) - 3y =12

-3y = 12

y = 12/ -3

y = - 4

Therefore the y-intercept is -4.

Similar as the above,for x-intercept, y=0, as any x-intercept would be located at a y-coordinate of 0.

Put 0 into y:

4x - 3(0) = 12

4x = 12

x = 12/4

x = 3

Therefore, the x-intercept is 3.

Hope it helps!

Softa [21]

<u>Answer-</u>

$\boxed{\boxed{f(n)=0.8(f(n-1))+10,\ f(0)=150,\ \ n>0}}$

<u>Solution-</u>

Here, n represents the number of months and f(n) represents the number of laptops in the store after n months.

As the store had 150 laptops in the month of January or at the beginning.

So $f(0)=150$

Every month, 20% of the laptops were sold and 10 new laptops were stocked in the store.

As 20% of laptops were sold, so 80% were in the store.

So, after one month total number of laptops in the store,

$\Rightarrow f(1)=0.8(150)+10$

$\Rightarrow f(1)=0.8(f(0))+10$ $(\because f(0)=150)$

Again after one month total number of laptops in the store,

$\Rightarrow f(2)=0.8\times (0.8(150)+10)+10$

$\Rightarrow f(2)=0.8(f(1))+10$ $(\because f(1)=0.8(150)+10)$

Analyzing the pattern, the recursive function f(n) will be,

$f(n)=0.8(f(n-1))+10,\ f(0)=150,\ \ n>0$

Your simplified answer is indeed 2/3 (or 60%, or 0.6) because the fraction 24/36 can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 6, which leaves you with 2/3.
