Finding y intercept and x intercept is easy:
X intercept will be of the form (x,0) and y intercept will be of the form (0,y)
● If you put x=0 in the equation, you will get y-intercept.
● If you put y=0 in the equation, you will get x-intercept.
______________________________
Given equation: 2x - 4y = 10
◆ Put x = 0
2×0 - 4y = 10
=> -4y = 10
=> y = 10/(-4)
=> y = -5/2
Thus y intercept is (0, -5/2)
◆Put y = 0
2x - 4×0 = 10
=> 2x = 10
=> x = 10/2
=> x = 5
Thus the x intercept is (5,0)
120+10+5=135
I don't know if all you're supposed to do is add or not... so i may be wrong....
Answer:
What you need???
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute x = 6y + 21 into the first equation:-
6(6y+21) + 2y = 26
36y + 126 + 2y = 26
38y = -100
y = -2.63
x = 6(-2.63) + 21 = 5.22
answer (-2.63, 5.22) to nearest hundredth
Hello from MrBillDoesMath
Answer: 6.2 feet
Discussion:
The ladder and the wall form a right triangle. The length of the ladder, 20 in this case, is the hypotenuse of the triangle. Let "x" be the distance between the foot of the ladder and the building. Then from trigonometry,
cos (@) = length of adjacent side/ hypotenuse
or in our case
cos(72) = x / 20 => (multiply both sides by 20)
20 * cos(72) = x.
Using a calculator this becomes
20 * ( .3090) = 6.18 feet (approx) or 6.2 feet , rounded to the nearest foot.
Thank you,
Mr. B
