Find the x-intercept for the line represented by this equation. y=5x-2

Mathematics

vfiekz [6]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The x- intercept is where the line crosses the x- axis. At this point on the x- axis the y- coordinate is zero.

To find the x- intercept let y = 0 in the equation and solve for x, that is

5x - 2 = 0 ( add 2 to both sides )

5x = 2 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = $\frac{2}{5}$ ← x- intercept

coordinates of x- intercept are ( $\frac{2}{5}$ , 0 ) → C

R/3+2=21 solve for r

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

r=63

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

r/3-(21)=0 r

Simplify —

— - 21 = 0

K(x) = 6x+100 k(-5) =

kkurt [141]

Answer:

$k(-5)=70$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

$k(x)=6x+100$

To find k(-5), we put x=-5 into the given function to get;

$k(-5)=6(-5)+100$

Multiply out to obtain;

$k(-5)=-30+100$

This is the same as;

$k(-5)=100-30$

This simplifies to

$k(-5)=70$

Which equation is equivalent to sqrt x +11=15

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

x=16

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

$\sqrtx+11=15$

we have to solve this equation for x

in order to do that we need to isolate x first

hence

subtracting 11 from both sides we get

$\sqrtx+11-11=15-11$

$\sqrtx=4$

Now we square on both sides we get

$(\sqrtx)^2=4^2$

$x=4 \times 4$

$x=16$

hence x =16

What whole number dimensions would allow the students to maximize the volume while keeping the surface area at most 160 square f

ycow [4]

Answer:

The whole number dimension that would allow the student to maximize the volume while keeping the surface area at most 160 square is 6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are required find the size of the sides of a dunk tank (cube with open top) such that the surface area is ≤ 160 ft²

For maximum volume, the side length, s of the cube must all be equal ;

Therefore area of one side = s²

Number of sides in a cube with top open = 5 sides

Area of surface = 5 × s² = 180

Therefore s² = 180/5 = 36

s² = 36

s = √36 = 6 ft

Therefore, the whole number dimension that would allow the student to maximize the volume while keeping the surface area at most 160 square = 6 ft.
