Answer:

The x-intercept is 2/3 and the y-intercept is -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we need to note that the x-intercept is the value of x, when y = 0. So we plug in y = 0 and see what the x value is.

3x - 6y = 2

3x - 6(0) = 2

3x = 2

x = 2/3

The y-intercept is the opposite. It is the y value when x = 0. So we do the same with the other term.

3x - 6y = 2

3(0) - 6y = 2

-6y = 2

y = -2/6

y = -1/3

A model rocket is 3 inches long. The real rocket is 120 feet long.

Nana76 [90]

The units are the complete story on this question. All of the choices are over 1 so the units make the answer over one. It takes more feet than it does inches to make the scale. The correct units are 120 feet / 3 inches. That makes A and B both incorrect.

You can't get 360 by any method but multiplication. The units for multiplication would be ft*in. So D is wrong. That only leaves you with C which is the answer.

The Pythagorean Theorem states that the sum of the squares of the two other sides on a right triangle is equal to hypotenuse (longest side) squared. It can be represented by the equation $a^2+b^2=c^2$ . We can also use this formula to solve for the other two legs in the right triangle.
