Answer:

x-intercept: -14/9

y-intercept: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

This is one of the easiest forms for finding intercepts. To find the x-intercept, set y=0 and divide both sides by the coefficient of x.

-9x = 14 . . . . . set y=0

x = -14/9 . . . . divide by -9

To find the y-intercept, set x=0 and divide both sides by the coefficient of y.

2y = 14 . . . . set x=0

y = 7 . . . . . . divide by 2

The x-intercept is -14/9; the y-intercept is 7.

Dorothy is using fabric to cover a photo album the width of the fabric is 5/8 of a yard the area of the fabric is 5/16 square ya

saul85 [17]

For this case we assume that the photo album is rectangular in shape and therefore the fabric too. By definition, the area of a rectangle is given by:

$A = a * b$

Where:

a: It is the length of the rectangle

b: It is the width of the rectangle

According to the problem data we have to:

$b =\frac {5}{8} \yard\\A = \frac {5} {16} \ yards ^ 2$

Substituting:

$\frac {5} {16} = a * \frac {5} {8}$

We clear "a":

$a = \frac {\frac {5} {16}} {\frac {5} {8}}\\a = \frac {5 * 8} {16 * 5}\\a = \frac {8} {16}\\a = \frac {1} {2}$

Thus, the length of the fabric is $\frac {1} {2} yards.$

ANswer:

The length of the fabric is $\frac {1} {2} yards.$

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug the numbers into the distance formula:

$d = \sqrt{(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2} \\$

$d = \sqrt{(11 - 5)^2 + (16-8)^2} \\$

Then solve:

You get 10
