Determine the x- and y-intercepts of the graph of y=−13x+3 .

1 answer:

6 0

The equation is in Slope intercept form.

y=mx+b

Where b is the y-intercept, or 3.

And to find the x-intercept, we have to set y=0. We know the slope and the y-intercept, so this should be fairly easy.

0= -13x+3

Subtract 3 on both sides.

-3= -13x

Divide -13 into both sides.

-3/-13=x

3/13= x (two positives equal a negative)

The x-intercept is 3/13, and the y-intercept is 3.

I hope this helps!

The vertices of a triangle ABC are A(7, 5), B(4, 2), and C(9, 2). What is measure of angle ABC? 30° 45° 56.31° 78.69°

GenaCL600 [577]

The measure of angle ABC is 45°

Explanation

Vertices of the triangle are: A(7, 5), B(4, 2), and C(9, 2)

According to the diagram below....

Length of the side BC (a) $=\sqrt{(4-9)^2+(2-2)^2}= \sqrt{25}= 5$

Length of the side AC (b) $= \sqrt{(7-9)^2 +(5-2)^2}= \sqrt{4+9}=\sqrt{13}$

Length of the side AB (c) $= \sqrt{(7-4)^2 +(5-2)^2} =\sqrt{9+9}=\sqrt{18}$

We need to find ∠ABC or ∠B . So using Cosine rule, we will get...

$cosB= \frac{a^2+c^2-b^2}{2ac} \\ \\ cos B= \frac{(5)^2+(\sqrt{18})^2-(\sqrt{13})^2}{2*5*\sqrt{18} }\\ \\ cosB= \frac{25+18-13}{10\sqrt{18}} =\frac{30}{10\sqrt{18}}=\frac{3}{\sqrt{18}}\\ \\ cosB=\frac{3}{3\sqrt{2}} =\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\\ \\ B= cos^-^1(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})= 45 degree$

So, the measure of angle ABC is 45°

Answer:

5 terms, the coefficient of x is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

A term is a value/number used in an equation. That means 5², 6, 2, 20, and 4 are terms. For the next one, if a variable has no number next to it, that means the coefficient is 1.
