We know that when a line intercepts the y axis, x is 0. So substitute x as 0, which makes the equation 5y = 20 and divide both sides by 5, so y = 4 which is the y intercept.

Write equation in slope-intercept format, y = mx + b, where b is the y-intercept.

4x + 5y = 20

5y = -4x + 20

y = -4/5 x + 20/5

y = -4/5 x + 4

y = mx + b

y = -4/5 x + 4

b = 4

Answer: y-intercept = (0, 4)

Find the value(s) of "k" that will cause the equation 4x^2 +kx + 4 to have one real solution.

Andreas93 [3]

Answer: k = {8, -8}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for a quadratic equation to have exactly one solution, the discriminant must equal zero. → b² - 4ac = 0

4x² + kx + 4 = 0

↓ ↓ ↓

a=4 b=k c=4

b² - 4ac = 0

k² - 4(4)(4) = 0

k² = 64

k = √64

k = ± 8

In a sample of 66 cabinets, the average height was found to be 32.2in. with a standard deviation of 2.1. Give a point estimate f

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

2.10

Step-by-step explanation:

The point estimate for the population standard deviation of the height of the cabinets equals to the provided standard deviation of the cabinets. Rounding off the given standard deviation which is 2.1 to 2 decimal places as the question requires then the point estimate for the population standard deviation of the height of the cabinets is approximately 2.10 ( 2 decimal places)
