Find the x-intercept and y-intercept of the line . -6x+5y=9

Geography
1 answer:
nekit [7.7K]3 years ago

Answer:

x-intercept: (-\frac{3}{2},0)

y-intercept: (0,\frac{9}{5})

Explanation:

We have the following Line equation:

-6x+5y=9

<h3>x-intercpet:</h3>

If we want to find the x-intercept (the point where the line crosses with the x-axis), we have to set y=0:

-6x+5(0)=9

-6x=9

x=-\frac{9}{6}

Simplifying:

x=-\frac{3}{2}

Hence, the x-intercept point is (-\frac{3}{2},0)

<h3>y-intercept:</h3>

If we want to find the y-intercept (the point where the line crosses with the y-axis), we have to set x=0:

-6(0)+5y=9

5y=9

y=\frac{9}{5}

Hence, the x-intercept point is (0,\frac{9}{5})

Decide whether each statement is true or false or choose the best answer to make each statement true.
erastova [34]

Answer:

As given below.

Explanation:

1. <u>False</u>,  as the number of daylight hours on the globe are mapped by the location f places over the various latitudes and altitudes. And the sun is not with the same both rise and set at both the hemispheres.

2. <u>Yes</u>, there exist changes of 12 hours in sunlight and darkness on earth due to the rotational speed of the earth on its axis as the earth is tilted 23.5 degrees so in both the hemisphere there exists equinoxes and solstices.

3. <u>True</u>, as the known fact the earth rotates in anticlockwise direction hence the eastern side gets to see the sun first and western side later this rule applies everywhere in the earth on both the equinoxes.

4. <u>True</u>, The celestial poles and equator are two points on earth that represent the equinoxes and the point that falls directly over the poles is called the zenith and the plane that touches is called the galactic plane.

What are plate boundaries?
sveta [45]
It is the lithosphere that is broken into tectonic plates, which undergo some large-scale motions. The boundary regions between plates are aptly called “plate boundaries.” Based upon their motions concerning one another, these plate boundaries are of three kinds: divergent, convergent, and transform.
