Find the x-intercept for the line represented by this equation. y=5x-2
1 answer:
Answer:
C
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 = ← x- intercept
coordinates of x- intercept are (, 0 ) → C

Let's say Bailey takes "b" days to paint it.
and Andrew takes "a" days to paint the same house.
now, Andrew is 6 times faster than Bailey, therefore, if Andrew takes "a" days to do it, Bailey takes then "6a" days, or b = 6a.
now, the year they worked together, they finished it in 7 days.
so, after 1 day then, they have only done 1/7 of the whole work.
and Andrew for one day, has done 1/a of the house, whilst Bailey has done 1/b of the house or 1/(6a).
