According to the right triangle altitude theorem, AN²=CN*NB=1*NB=NB
ΔANB is a right triangle, so AN²=AB²-NB²=(2√5)²-NB²=20-NB²

NB=20-NB²
solve for NB: NB²+NB-20=0, (NB+5)(NB-4)=0, NB=4 or NB=-5 (ignore this negative root)

AN²=NB=4, so AN=2

AC²=AN²+CN², AC²=2²+1², AC=√5

Find the y-intercept of the line -4× - 2y =16​
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

The y intercept is (0,-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y intercept, set x = 0 and solve for y

-4x -2y = 16

-4(0) -2y =16

-2y = 16

Divide by -2

-2y/-2 = 16/-2

y = -8

The y intercept is (0,-8)
