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

1 answer:

7 0

1/3x - 1/2y = 1

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

Multiply each side by 3 : x = 3  <== 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 :  y = -2  <== the y-intercept

Answer:

117

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

r³ - 2s ← substitute given values into the expression

= 5³ - 2(4)

How do I solve x(3x-17)=0 using the square root property

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

x = 0 or $x = \frac{17}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the quadratic equation of variable x and we have to solve the equation using the square root property.

Now, we have x(3x - 17) = 0

⇒ 3x² - 17x = 0

⇒ $3(x^{2} - \frac{17}{3}x ) = 0$

⇒ $x^{2} - 2 \times (\frac{17}{6}) \times x + (\frac{17}{6} )^{2} = (\frac{17}{6} )^{2}$

⇒ $(x - \frac{17}{6})^{2} = (\frac{17}{6} )^{2}$

Now,square rooting both sides we get,

$x - \frac{17}{6} = \pm\frac{17}{6}$

Therefore, either x = 0 or $x = \frac{17}{3}$ (Answer)

Determine whether each equation below does or does not represent a proportional relationship. support your answer using either a

Triss [41]

Answer:

As the ratio for all the points on the equation y = x is same. Hence, the equation y = x REPRESENTS a proportional relationship.
As the ratio for all the points on the equation y = x+2 is not same. Hence, the equation y = x + 2 DOES NOT REPRESENT a proportional relationship.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving equation A: y = x 

Let us consider the given equation A:

y = x

Putting x = 1 in y = x

y = x

y = 1 ∵ x = 1

Hence, (1, 1) is the ordered pair of y = x

Putting x = 2 in y = x

y = x

y = 2 ∵ x = 2

Hence, (2, 2) is the ordered pair of y = x

Putting x = 3 in y = x

y = x

y = 3 ∵ x = 3

Hence, (3, 3) is the ordered pair of y = x

Putting x = 4 in y = x

y = x

y = 4 ∵ x = 4

Hence, (4, 4) is the ordered pair of y = x

Putting x = 5 in y = x

y = x

y = 5 ∵ x = 5

Hence, (5, 5) is the ordered pair of y = x

Lets us consider all the ordered pairs i.e. (1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (4, 4) and (5, 5) to make a table for y = x.

y x

1 1

2 2

3 3

4 4

5 5

As from the table, lets take the ratio of every point i.e. y/x

For (1, 1), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 1/1 = 1
For (2, 2), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 2/2 = 1
For (3, 3), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 3/3 = 1
For (4, 4), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 4/4 = 1
For (5, 5), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 5/5 = 1

Hence, the ratio for all the points on the equation y = x is same. Hence, the equation y = x REPRESENTS a proportional relationship. Please also check the graph in attached figure a.

Solving equation A: y = x +2

Let us consider the given equation A:

y = x + 2

Putting x = 1 in y = x + 2

y = x + 2

y = 1 + 2 ⇒ 3 ∵ x = 1

Hence, (1, 3) is the ordered pair of y = x + 2

Putting x = 2 in y = x + 2

y = x + 2

y = 2 +2 ⇒ 4 ∵ x = 2

Hence, (2, 4) is the ordered pair of y = x + 2

Putting x = 3 in y = x + 2

y = x + 2

y = 3 + 2 ⇒ 5 ∵ x = 3

Hence, (3, 5) is the ordered pair of y = x + 2

Putting x = 4 in y = x + 2

y = x + 2

y = 4 + 2 ⇒ 6 ∵ x = 4

Hence, (4, 6) is the ordered pair of y = x + 2

Putting x = 5 in y = x + 2

y = x + 2

y = 5 +2 ⇒ 7 ∵ x = 5

Hence, (5, 7) is the ordered pair of y = x + 2

Lets us consider all the ordered pairs i.e. (1, 3), (2, 4), (3, 5), (4, 6) and (5, 7) to make a table for y = x + 2.

y x + 2

1 3

2 4

3 5

4 6

5 7

As from the table, lets take the ratio of every point i.e. y/x

For (1, 3), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 3/1 = 3
For (2, 4), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 4/2 = 2
For (3, 5), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 5/3 = 5/3
For (4, 6), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 6/4 = 3/2
For (5, 7), the ratio will be y/x ⇒ 7/5 = 7/5

Hence, the ratio for all the points on the equation y = x+2 is not same. Hence, the equation y = x + 2 DOES NOT REPRESENT a proportional relationship. Please also check the graph in attached figure a.
