What is the y-intercept of the function, represented by the table of values

Mathematics
1 answer:
AleksandrR [38]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

The table is given below

\left|\begin{array}{c|cc}x&y\\--&--\\-2&15\\1&6\\2&3\\4&-3\\7&-12\end{array}\right|

We can see that the table represents a linear function since by checking its slope.

Using:

  1. Points (-2,15) and (1,6)
  2. Points (1,6) and (2,3)

Slope =\dfrac{6-15}{1-(-2)} =\dfrac{3-6}{2-1}=-3

Therefore, the values represent a linear function.

A linear equation is of the form y=mx+b

Therefore:

y=-3x+b

Using the points (7,-12)

-12=-3(7)+b\\-12=-21+b\\b=-12+21\\b=9

Therefore, the y-intercept of the function, represented by the table of values is 9.

Five times the sum of 3 and twice some numbers is 70. What is the number?
Anna11 [10]
Let x represent some number
Sum of 3 and twice some number = 3 +2x
Five times the sum of 3 and twice some number: 5(3+2x)

5(3+2x)=70
15+10x=70
Subtract 15 from both sides to have 10x by itself
10x=55
Divide 10 on both sides to get x by itself
x=55/10
x=5.5

Hope this helped
