Answer:

y-intercept in the equation is, A base salary.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form:

The equation of line is given by:

y = mx+c              ....[1]

where, m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

Given the equation:

y = 0.1x + 20,000

where, x is the number of units and y is the salary

Comparing with equation [1] we have;

m = 0.1

y(0)= c = 20000

Therefore, the meaning of the y-intercept in the equation is, a base salary.

Find the slope, x-intercept, and y-intercept of the equation y = 10x - 20.
levacccp [35]

Answer:

slope=10, y-int=-20. x-int=2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation y=10x-20 is in slope-intercept form, or y=mx+b with m being the slope and b being the y-int. In this scenarion, the m(the slope) is 10 and the b(the y-int) is -20. For the x-int, you have to find out what x is when y=0 and vice versa for the y-int. In this case, 0=10x-20 so x=2. Therefor the x-int is 2.

The ratio of the measures of the three sides of a triangle is 1/4:1/3:1/6 and its perimeter is 31.4 centimetres find the length
lina2011 [118]

Given:

The ratio of the measures of the three sides of a triangle is \dfrac{1}{4}:\dfrac{1}{3}:\dfrac{1}{6}.

Its perimeter is 31.4 centimeters

To find:

The shortest side of the triangle.

Solution:

Let the measures of the three sides of a triangle are \dfrac{1}{4}x,\dfrac{1}{3}x,\dfrac{1}{6}x respectively (in cm).

Its perimeter is 31.4 centimeters.

\dfrac{1}{4}x+\dfrac{1}{3}x+\dfrac{1}{6}x=31.4

\dfrac{3x+4x+2x}{12}=31.4

\dfrac{9x}{12}=31.4

\dfrac{3x}{4}=31.4

On further simplification, we get

3x=4\times 31.4

3x=125.6

Divide both sides by 3.

x=\dfrac{125.6}{3}

x=41.867

Now, the sides of triangle are

\dfrac{1}{4}(41.867)=10.467

\dfrac{1}{3}(41.867)=13.956

\dfrac{1}{6}(41.867)=6.978

Therefore, the length of the shortest side is 6.978 cm.
