For this you want to put it into slope-intercept form: y=mx+b


-3x-4y=-12
add over -3x
-4y=3x-12
divide by -4
y=-3/4x + 3  (now it's in the right form!)

The slope is m (-3/4)
and the y intercept is b (3)

In form
ax+by=c
slope=-a/b
y intercpept=c/b

so

-3x-4y=-12
a=-3
b=-4
c=-12
slope=-(-3)/-4=3/-4=-3/4
yint=-12/-4=3

slope=-3/4
yint is 3

The square root of the quotient of a number n and 3 is equal to the square root of 4 less than the number. Which of the followin
Lisa [10]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation: You can set up the equation: \sqrt{\frac{n}{3} } = \sqrt{n-4} You square both sides to cancel out the squares which leaves you with \frac{n}{3} = n - 4. Then you just solve as normal which ends you up with an answer of 6. You can check this by plugging 6 back into the equation and see that you end up with \sqrt{2} on both sides.

What do you predict the solution for the system 5x-6y=7 and 6x-7y=8 will be ?<br>​
Alenkinab [10]
System of Linear Equations entered :

[1] 5x - 6y = 7
[2] 6x - 7y = 8
Graphic Representation of the Equations :

-6y + 5x = 7 -7y + 6x = 8

Solve equation [2] for the variable x


[2] 6x = 7y + 8

[2] x = 7y/6 + 4/3
// Plug this in for variable x in equation [1]

[1] 5•(7y/6+4/3) - 6y = 7
[1] - y/6 = 1/3
[1] - y = 2
// Solve equation [1] for the variable y


[1] y = - 2
// By now we know this much :

x = 7y/6+4/3
y = -2
// Use the y value to solve for x

x = (7/6)(-2)+4/3 = -1

What is the solution of √1-3x = x+3 ?<br><br><br>​
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

{-1, -8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Please enclose "1 - 3x" inside parentheses so the reader will know that you want the square root of all of "1 - 3x".

Squaring both sides of the given equation, we get:

1 - 3x = x^2 + 6x + 9, or  x^2 + 6x + 8 + 3x, or

x^2 + 9x + 8 = 0.  Factoring, we get:  (x + 8)(x + 1) = 0, so that the solutions are {-1, -8}.

Use intercepts to graph the linear equation -2x+7y=-21 Question 2
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The point representing the y-intercept is: (0, -3)

The black dot represents the y-intercept on the attached graph. It is very clear at y = 0, x = -3.

The point representing the x-intercept is: (10.5, 0)

The red dot represents the x-intercept on the attached graph. It is very clear at x = 0, y = 10.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the linear equation

-2x+7y=-21

Determining the y-intercept

We know that the value of y-intercept can be determined by setting x = 0, and determining the corresponding value of y.

substituting x = 0 in the equation

-2x+7y=-21

-2(0) + 7y = -21

0+7y = -21

7y = -21

divide both sides by 7

7y/7 = -21/7

y = -3

Therefore, the point representing the y-intercept is: (0, -3)

The black dot represents the y-intercept on the attached graph. It is very clear at y = 0, x = -3.

Determining the x-intercept

We know that the value of x-intercept can be determined by setting y = 0, and determining the corresponding value of x.

substituting y = 0 in the equation

-2x+7y=-21

-2x+7(0) = -21

-2x + 0 = -21

-2x = -21

divide both sides by -2

-2x / -2 = -21 / -2

x = 21/2

x = 10.5

Therefore, the point representing the x-intercept is: (10.5, 0)

The graph of the linear equation containing the y-intercept (0, -3) and x-intercept (10.5, 0) is shown and attached below.

The red dot represents the x-intercept on the attached graph. It is very clear at x = 0, y = 10.5

Please check the attached graph.
