To solve, you make a systems of equation:
x+(x+3)=25, the x representing the number of pigs. Since there is no multiplication and following the order of operations, you add the x’s to get 2x+3=25. Then, you subtract 3 from both sides to get 2x=22, then divide by 2 on both sides to isolate the variable. Therefore, x=11 and Mary is taking care of 11 pigs.

What is the y-intercept of the liner function? (y=3x-2)
inysia [295]

The y-intercept of the linear function y = 3x - 2 is -2

<h3>How to determine the y-intercept?</h3>

The function is given as

y = 3x - 2

The above function is a linear function, and the y-intercept is the point on the graph, where x = 0 i.e. the point (0, y)

As a general rule, linear functions are those functions that have constant rates or slopes

Next, we set x to 0, and calculate y to determine the value of the y-intercept

y = 3(0) - 2

Remove the bracket in the above equation

y = 3 * 0 - 2

Evaluate the product of 3 and 0 i.e. multiply 3 and 0

y = 0 - 2

Evaluate the difference of 0 and -2 i.e. subtract 0 from 2

y = -2

The above means that the value of y when x is 0 is -2

Hence, the y-intercept of the linear function y = 3x - 2 is -2

On a coordinate plane, a line is drawn from point j to point k. point j is at (negative 15, negative 5) and point k is at (25, 1
Genrish500 [490]

The required x- and y- coordinates of point e, which partitions the directed line segment is (17, 11)

<h3>Midpoint of coordinates</h3>

The middle point of two coordinates is known as its midpoint. The formula for calculating the midpoint of a coordinate is expressed as:

m(x,y)=(\frac{mx_1+nx_2}{m+n},  \frac{my_1+ny_2}{m+n})

Given the coordinate points J(-15, -5) and k(25, 15) partitioned in the ratio 1:4, the x- and y- coordinates of point e, which partitions the directed line segment is given as:

m(x,y)=(\frac{1(-15)+4(25)}{1+4},  \frac{1(-5)+4(15)}{1+4})\\m(x,y)=(\frac{85}{5}, \frac{55}{5} )\\m(x, y) = (17,11)

Hence the required x- and y- coordinates of point e, which partitions the directed line segment is (17, 11)
