Can anyone find the x and y intercepts for this equation?

Mathematics

ASHA 777 [7]3 years ago
7 0
<span><u>1/3x - 1/2y = 1</u>

At the 'x' intercept, y=0 , and the equation is    1/3 x = 1

Multiply each side by 3 :            <em>x = 3 </em> <== the x-intercept


At the 'y' intercept,  x=0, and the equation is  -1/2 y = 1

Multiply each side by  2 :            - y = 2

Multiply each side by  -1 :            <em> y = -2  </em>  <== the y-intercept

Answer:

- 1 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

-1 1/5 + - 3/5

Since the signs are the same, we add and take the sign

1 1/5 + 3/5

1 4/5

The sign is negative

- 1 4/5

On the number line start at - 1 1/5 and go to the left 3/5( since the sign is negative)  you will end up at - 1 4/5

Linda left home and drove for 2 hours. She stopped for lunch then drove for another 3 hours at a rate that is 10 mph higher than
Verdich [7]

Answer:

44 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Before lunch :

Time taken = 2hrs ; at speed = x mph

After lunch :

Time taken = 3hrs ; at speed = x + 10 mph

Total distance covered = 250 miles :

Distance = speed * time

(2 * x) + (3 * (x + 10)) = 250

2x + 3x + 30 = 250

5x + 30 = 250

5x = 250 - 30

5x = 220

x = 220/ 5

x = 44 mph

Rate before lunch is 44mph

Sara is mixing together a fruit punch for a party. She's made 4 gallons of punch with a mixture of 50% juice. Her mother tells h
Nata [24]
\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}&#10;&amount(gallons)&juice&\textit{juice amount}\\&#10;&--------&-----&-----\\&#10;\textit{50\% punch}&4&0.50&(4)(0.50)\\&#10;\textit{pure juice}&x&1.00&(x)(1.00)\\&#10;-----&-----&-----&-----\\&#10;mixture&4+x&0.60&(4+x)(0.60)&#10;\end{array}

notice, that, pure juice is 100% juice, dohhh, thus 100/100 = 1.00
50% is 50/100 or 0.50 in decimal format

so..... whatever those two quantities amount to, that is, the 50% and pure juice, or (4)(0.50) + (x)(1.00)
they will equal the mixture desired 60% juice, or 0.60, namely (4+x)(0.60)

thus    (4)(0.50) + (x)(1.00) = (4+x)(0.60)

solve for "x"

What are the values of x and y in PQRS? What are PR and SQ?
mamaluj [8]

Step-by-step explanation:

sol;

x+1=y...(1)

3y-7=2x....(2)

or, 3(x+1)-72x [from (1)]

or, 3x+3-7=2x

or, 3x-2x=7-3

     x=4

now,

putting the value of x in (1)

y=x+1

 =4+1

 =5

PR and SQ are the diagonal of PQRS.
