1. To find the x-intercept, replace y in the equation with 0, then solve for x.

... To find the y-intercept, replace x in the equation with 0, then solve for y.

If the equation is easily put into the form

... x/a + y/b = 1

Then the x-intercept is "a" and the y-intercept is "b".

2. Let's graph 3x+4y = -12.

If we divide the equation by -12, we can put it into the form

.. x/(-4) + y/(-3) = 1

This equation has x-intercept -4 and y-intercept -3.

(If you know the intercepts, you can simply draw the line through them to graph your linear equation.)

A man travels 20 km by car from Town P to Town Q at an average speed of x km/h. He finds that the time of the journey would be s
yuradex [85]

Answer:

x = 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you should remember the relation:

Distance = Speed*Time.

First, we know that a man travels a distance of 20km at a speed of x km/h, in a time T.

We can write this as:

20km = (x km/h)*T

We know that the time is shortened by 12 minutes if the speed is increased by 5km/h

Rewriting these 12 minutes in hours (remember that 60min = 1 hour)

12 min = (12/60) hours = 0.2 hours

Then from this, he can travel the same distance of 20km in a time T minus 0.2 hours if the speed is increased by 5 km/h

We can write this as:

20km = (x + 5 km/h)*(T - 0.2 h)

Then we have a system of two equations, and we want to find the value of x:

20km = (x km/h)*T

20km = (x + 5 km/h)*(T - 0.2 h)

First, we should isolate the variable T in one of the equations, if we isolate it in the first one, we will get:

20km/(x km/h) = T

Replacing that in the other equation we get:

20km = (x + 5 km/h)*(T - 0.2 h)

20km = (x + 5 km/h)*( 20km/(x km/h) - 0.2 h)

Now we can solve this for x.

Removing the units (that we know that are correct) so the math is easier to read, we get:

20 = (x + 5)*(20/x - 0.2)

We only want to solve this for x.

20 = x*20/x - x*0.2 + 5*20/x - 5*0.2

20 = 20 - 0.2*x + 100/x - 1

subtracting 20 in both sides we get:

20 - 20 = 20 - 0.2*x + 100/x - 1 - 20

0 = -0.2*x + 100/x - 1

If we multiply both sides by x we get:

0 = -0.2*x^2 + 100 - x

-0.2*x^2 - x + 100 = 0

This is just a quadratic equation, we can solve it using the Bhaskara's equation, the solutions are:

x = \frac{-(-1) \pm \sqrt{(-1)^2 - 4*(-0.2)*100} }{2*-0.2}  = \frac{1 \pm 9 }{-0.4}

Then the two solutions are:

x = (1 + 9)/-0.4 = -25

x = (1 - 9)/-0.4 = 20

As x is used to represent a speed, the negative solution does not make sense, so we should use the positive one.

x = 20

then the average speed initially is 20 km/h
