Answer:

(8, -22)

Step-by-step explanation:

The tables each contain four (x,y) points of a straight line. You can see that for every increase of x by 2, y decreases by 8 in the first one (observe 26, 18, 10 2), and decreases by 6 in the second.

If you continue the table with x=4, 6 and 8, you get y=-22 in both cases for x=8. That is the intersection, so the solution is (8,-22).

Added a graph. The equations are y=10-4x and y=2-3x respectively. Hope you understand a bit of this (brief) explanation.

0.5(x - 3) + (1.5 - x) = 5x
0.5x - 1.5 + 1.5 - x = 5x
-0.5x = 5x
5x + 0.5x = 0
5.5x = 0
x = 0

a worker at a mill is delivering 5lbs bags of flour to a local warehouse, each box holds 12 bags. If the warehouse orders 3 tons

ivolga24 [154]

I'm pretty sure that u multiply 12 and 5 and u get 60 and that's in only one box just 60lbs then u find how many pounds in a ton which is 2,000 then u have 3 tons so multiple 2,000 and 3 and u get 6,000 so then u divide 60 and 6,000 and u get 100 I'm pretty sure that's how u do it

F(x)=(x-2)(x+4) what is the y-intercept and x-intercept

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

x-int=-8, y-int=2,-4

Step-by-step explanation:

for the x-int

you set x to 0 then solve the equation to get -8

for the y-int

you set y(or in this case f(x)) to 0 then solve. You solve this by spilting this into 2 linear equations; x-2=0 and x+4=0, then you solve them both to get the two y-intercepts, 2 and -4
