Determine the X- and Y- intercepts for the graph defined by the given equation. Y= -8

2 answers:

8 0

Answer: Y = -8 simply means for every x coordinate the y coordinate is -8, therefore it creates a horizontal line at y = -8.

X intercepts are when y = 0. Y intercepts are when x = 0.

In this case of the line, y = -8 there is no x intercept because y doesn’t equal 0.

However there is a y intercept at (0,-8) because y is -8 for every input including 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps!!

Which of the following are solutions to the equation below?

$\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}$

Let's solve the given equation ~

$\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:4 {x}^{2} + 20x + 25 = 49$

$\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:4 {x}^{2} + 20x + 25 - 49 = 0$

$\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:4 {x}^{2} + 20x - 24 = 0$

$\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:4( {x}^{2} + 5x - 6) = 0$

$\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \: {x}^{2} + 5x - 6 = 0$

$\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \: {x}^{2} + 6x - x - 6 = 0$

$\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:x(x + 6) - 1(x + 6) = 0$

$\qquad \tt \dashrightarrow \:(x + 6)(x - 1) = 0$

Hence, we get -6 and 1 as our roots ~

So, the correct choices are : B and D

A box contains 95 pink rubber bands and 90 brown rubber bands. You select a rubber band at random from the box. Find each probab

sasho [114]

A. The theoretical probability for pink is 95/185 or about 51.35%

B. The theoretical probability for brown is 90/185 or about 47.82%.

C. To find the experimental probability, we will make another fraction. The number of outcomes will be the numerator and the total will be the denominator.

Pink 36/69 = 52.17%
Brown 33/69 = 47.82%

Which graph represents the function f (x) = StartFraction 5 minus 5 x squared Over x squared EndFraction? On a coordinate plane,

Answer:

2. On a coordinate plane, a hyperbola is shown. One curve opens up and to the right in quadrants 1 and 4, and the other curve opens up and to the left in quadrants 2 and 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Technically, the curve is not a hyperbola. A hyperbola is of the form 1/x; this one is of the form 1/x².

The function can be simplified to ...

f(x) = 5/x² -5

which is a "hyperbola" with a vertical asymptote at x=0 and a vertical translation of -5 units to bring parts of it into the 3rd and 4th quadrants.
