7x-3y=21 Find the intercept

1 answer:

3 0

Y-intercept:

Plug in 0 for 'x' to find the y-intercept:

7x - 3y = 21

7(0) - 3y = 21

0 - 3y = 21

-3y = 21

Divide -3 to both sides:

y = -7

So the y-intercept is -7.

x-intercept:

7x - 3y = 21

Plug in 0 for 'y' to find the x-intercept.

7x - 3(0) = 21

7x - 0 = 21

7x = 21

Divide 7 to both sides:

x = 3

So the x-intercept is 3.

You can mow one acre in 126 minutes. i can mow one acre in 117 minutes. how long will it take you to mow a 0.17-acre lawn? 13 in

Morgarella [4.7K]

a) (0.17 ac)×(126 min/ac) = 21.42 min

b) I can mow 1/126 ac/min; you can mow 1/117 ac/min. Together, we can mow at a rate that is the sum of these:

... (1/126 + 1/117) ac/min = (117 + 126)/(126×117) = 243/14,742 ac/min

Then it will take 14,742/243 min/ac × 0.17 ac/lawn ≈ 10.31 min/lawn

What is 25% 136 so I know

tigry1 [53]

It's 34.

You can either intuitively know 25% means one-fourth and divide 136 by 4

Or

Convert the percentage to a decimal and multiply. 136 * 0.25 = 34

Using scientific notation, what is the solution to (2.82 * 104) * (3.1 * 103)?

MArishka [77]

Answer: Choice A) 8.742 * 10^7

=====================================

Work Shown:

$(a * 10^b) \times (c * 10^d) = a*c*10^{b+d}\\\\(2.82 * 10^4) \times (3.1 * 10^3) = 2.82*3.1*10^{4+3}\\\\(2.82 * 10^4) \times (3.1 * 10^3) = 8.742*10^{7}\\\\$
