Answer:
Step-by-step explanation
Three-fifths of a number means 
and 21 less than that number means 
.
You can create and solve a proportion to get this answer.
Let x be the number of litters in 2500.
1. Write out proportion. 1/1000=x/2500
2. Cross Multiply. 1000x=2500
3. Divide by 1000 on each side. x=25
Answer:
The equation of the line is y = 1/4x - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find this, start with two points that are on the line. We'll use (0, -4) and (4, -3). Now we can use the slope formula to find the slope.
m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (-4 - -3)/(0 - 4)
m = -1/-4
m = 1/4
Now that we have this, we can use that slope and a point in point-slope form. Then we solve for y to get the equation.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - -4 = 1/4(x - 0)
y + 4 = 1/4x
y = 1/4x - 4
Answer:
x = 3
y = 0
z = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
a) 3x + 3y - z = 1
b) z = 8
c) -x -3y + 2z = 13
a) 3x + 3y - 8 = 1 (substitution)
a) 3x + 3y = 9
c) - x - 3y + 2(8) = 13 (substitution)
c) -x - 3y + 16 = 13
c) -x - 3y = -3
(3x + 3y = 9) + (-x -3y = -3)
= 2x = 6
x = 3
a) 3(3) + 3y - 8 = 1
9 + 3y - 8 = 1
y = (1 -9 + 8)/3
y = 0
Y- intercept is a point where any graph crosses the y- axis.
X- intercept is a point where any graph crosses the x- axis.
This means the coordinate of the point of intersection will always have the x point as 0. So any point of the form ( 0, y) is the y- intercept. Any point of the form (x,0) is the x- intercept.
Given point are :
(0,-6) : y intercept
(-2,0) : x intercept
(-6,0): x- intercept
(0,-2): y- intercept
