x-intercept = 4, y-intercept = - 3

to find the intercepts, that is where the graph crosses the axes

let x = 0, in the equation for y- intercept

let y = 0, in the equation for x- intercept

x = 0 : - 4y = 12 ⇒ y = - 3 ⇒ (0, - 3) ← y - intercept

y = 0 : 3x = 12 ⇒ x = 4 ⇒ (4, 0 ) ← x- intercept

Hey there...

So this is a tough question.....

<u><em>Let's start with the x first, then we will go to y.</em></u>

So, here is the x.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>: To find the x intercept, make the y = (0). Since we know that x needs 0 for the y coordinate.

3x-4(0)=12

<u><em>x=4.</em></u>

So the intercept for<em><u> x = 4.</u></em>

Now we have to do the y.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>: To find the y, make x = (0), since know that y needs 0 in the front of the number.

3(0)-4y=12

<u><em>y=-3</em></u>

So the<u><em> y = -3.</em></u>


Hope this helps.....

Is what i did correct?

No, you should have reduced each base to...
3^(3*2x) = 3^(2*(x-3))
and then you can cancel each base
3*2x = 2*(x-3)
6x = 2x-6
4x= -6
x = -3/2

I need help! Will this would be very appreciated!pls

Answer:

No real

solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, let us check if we would be having a real solution

We start by rewriting the equation

We have this as;

8x^2 -25x + 24 = 0

We proceed to get the discriminant

Mathematically, we have this as;

D = b^2 - 4ac

b is the coefficient of x which is -25

a is the coefficient of x^2 which is 8

c is the last number which is 24

So we have;

D = (-25)^2 - 4(8)(24)

D = 625 - 768 = -143

Since the value of the discriminant is negative, there cannot be real roots

What we have as solution are complex roots

X=y 1.25x = 1.25y no soulation exactly 1 soulation infintely many soulations
Cerrena [4.2K]
For any equation with more than one variable, there is either no solution or infinitely many solutions.

If we can find just <em>one</em> solution that works, that would eliminate the possibility of there being no solution, and so we could prove it to have infinitely many solutions.

Can we come up with at least one solution to these equations? Of course!

For x=y
Thinking of two equal numbers is extremely easy. For instance, if we chose x to be 2 and y to be 2, that's a solution right there! Thus x=y has infinitely many solutions.
It's just as easy picking two numbers that are equal when you multiply them by 1.25. Think back to the multiplication property of equality. If two things are equal, and you multiply them by a number, they will still be equal. So all we need is, once again, two equal numbers. 2 and 2, boom and boom. 1.25x=1.25y has infinitely many solutions as well.
