Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Keep in mind that the equation of the y-axis is simply x=0. A line parallel to the y-axis that passes thru x = 3 has the equation x=3. That's it.

You cannot write this in slope intercept form because vertical lines don't have defined slopes.

There are some chickens and goats on a farm. Given that the animals have a total of 50 heads and 140 legs, how many more more ch

Lostsunrise [7]

Let the number of goats be 'x'.
Therefore, the number of chicken will be 50-x
Total number of legs the goats will have= 4x (goats have 4 legs)
Total number of legs chickens will have= 2(50-x) (chickens have two legs).
4x + 2(50-x)=140
4x+100-2x=140
2x+100=140
2x=40
x=20.
There are 20 goats and 30 chickens.

Answer:

y = 3x represents the graph. The point (4, 12) is on the line that is not shown on the graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line that goes through origin= y = mx

Take any to points from the line

(0,0) & ( 2,6)

$Slope =\dfrac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=\dfrac{6-0}{2-0}=\dfrac{6}{2}=3$

Equation of the line:

y = 3x

Plugin x = 4,

y = 3*4 = 12

(4,12) is on the line.
