Answer:

y-intercept: (0, 2.5)

x-intercept: (1.67, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Right now, you have 3x + 2y = 5. You want to change it into slope-intercept form to make the problem easier to solve.

2y = -3x + 5

y = -3/2x + 5/2

From here, you can see that the y-intercept is (0, 5/2). You can also say that the y-intercept is (0, 2.5).

To get the x-intercept, substitute 0 for y.

0 = -3/2x + 5/2

3/2x = 5/2

3x = 5

x = 5/3

So, the x-intercept is (5/3, 0). You can also say that the x-intercept is (1.67, 0).

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x-intercept, let y = 0.  Then 3x = 5 and x = 5/3, or x = 1.667, and the x-intercept is (1.667, 0).

To find the y-intercept, let x = 0.  Then 2y = 5 and y = 5/2 or 2.5.  Then the y-intercept is (0, 2.5).

Matilda always eats at least one of the following for breakfast: cereal, bread, or yogurt. On Monday, she is especially picky. I
Annette [7]

Answer:

Matilda eats Cereal on Monday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Breakfast options for Matilda are: Cereal (C), Bread (B) or Yogurt (Y).

<u>Condition 1:</u> If she eats cereal and bread she also eats yogurt.

                     Then Matilda's breakfast combination is: C + B + Y.

<u>Condition 2:</u> If she eats bread or yogurt, she also eats cereal.

                     Then Matilda's breakfast combination is: C + B or C + Y.

<u>Condition 3:</u> She never eats both cereal and yogurt.

                   Then Matilda's breakfast combination does not include is: C + Y.

<u>Condition 4:</u> She always eats bread or cereal.

                  Then Matilda's breakfast combination always includes is: C or B.

If Matilda eats bread (B) then according to Condition 2 she eats cereal (C) also. And since she eats both C and B she eats yogurt (Y) also.

But according to Condition 3 Matilda never eats both cereal and yogurt.

Hence she can never have all three for breakfast.

She cannot eat bread (B) alone [according to Condition 2], Matilda is left with only one option, i.e. Cereal (C).

Thus, Matilda eats Cereal for breakfast on Monday.
