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).

Solve the following system of equations.<br> 2x + 5y = -18 and y = -4x
andriy [413]

Answer:

x=1 and y= -4

Step-by-step explanation:

step one: plug -4x into y in thi]e first equation.

2x+5(-4)= -18

step two: solve for x

2x-20= -18

(add 20 to both sides to eliminate -20 on the right)

2x=2

(divide both sides by 2 to get x by its self)

x=1

step 3: now that we found the value for x plug it in to either equation and solve for y

y= -4x

y= -4(1)

y= -4

Zack has been planting young trees in his garden. The maple tree that is 42 inches tall is growing 1 inch per month, whereas the
kolezko [41]

In 16 months, two trees will be of same height

The trees will be of 58 inches tall

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "x" be the number of months

<em><u>The maple tree that is 42 inches tall is growing 1 inch per month</u></em>

Thus, equation for maple tree is given as:

Maple tree : 42 + 1 inch (number of months)

Maple tree : 42 + x ------- eqn 1

<em><u>The oak tree that is 10 inches tall is growing 3 inches per month</u></em>

Thus, equation for oak tree is given as:

Oak tree : 10 + 3 inch (number of months)

Oak tree : 10 + 3x -------- eqn 1

<em><u>For two two trees to be equal in height, equate eqn 1 and eqn 2</u></em>

42 + x = 10 + 3x\\\\3x - x = 42 - 10\\\\2x = 32\\\\x = 16

Thus, in 16 months, two trees will be of same height

<em><u>What will that height be?</u></em>

Substitute x = 16 in any one eqn

10+3x = 10 + 3(16) = 10+48 = 58

Thus the trees will be of 58 inches tall
