Find the y-intercept and x-intercept of the line. – 3x+9y= 14

Mathematics
1 answer:
pickupchik [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

\huge\boxed{x-intercept=-\dfrac{14}{3}=-4\dfrac{2}{3}}\\\boxed{y-intercept=\dfrac{14}{9}=1\dfrac{5}{9}}

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x+9y=14\\\\x-intercept\ \text{for}\ y=0:\\\\-3x+9(0)=14\\-3x+0=14\\-3x=14\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-3)}\\\boxed{x=-\dfrac{14}{3}=-4\dfrac{2}{3}}}

y-intercept\ \text{for}\ x=0:\\\\-3(0)+9y=14\\0+9y=14\\9y=14\qquad\text{divide both sides by 9}\\\boxed{y=\dfrac{14}{9}=1\dfrac{5}{9}}

What are the solutions to
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

B and F

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 4x + 4 = 12 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

x² + 4x = 8

Using the method of completing the square to solve for x

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(2)x + 4 = 8 + 4, that is

(x + 2)² = 12 ( take the square root of both sides )

x + 2 = ± \sqrt{12} ( subtract 2 from both sides )

x = ± \sqrt{12} - 2

  = ± 2\sqrt{3} - 2

Hence

x = 2\sqrt{3} - 2 → B

x = - 2\sqrt{3} - 2 → F

JA mattress store in Stafford purchased a mattress at a cost of $255 and marked it up 100%. Later on, Cassie bought the mattress
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

She pays $566.10

Step-by-step explanation:

The mattress store marks a mattress up 100%. 100% of $225 is 225. We add 225 to 225 and get 510. Therefore, the store sells the mattress for $510 without tax. When Cassie buys the mattress, we have to add 11% tax. We change 11% to 0.11 and multiply that by the selling price (510). We get 56.10, so that is the tax. We add the tax to the selling price and get $566.10. Cassie pays $566.10 for the mattress.

I hope this helped and please mark me as brainliest!

How do I solve |5-3p|+9=13p+8
anastassius [24]

Answer:

p = -2/5 or 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

|5 − 3p| + 9 = 13p + 8

|5 − 3p| = 13p − 1

If 5 − 3p is positive:

5 − 3p = 13p − 1

6 = 16p

p = 3/8

If 5 − 3p is negative:

-(5 − 3p) = 13p − 1

-5 + 3p = 13p − 1

-4 = 10p

p = -2/5

Alternatively, we can square both sides of the equation:

(5 − 3p)² = (13p − 1)²

25 − 30p + 9p² = 169p² − 26p + 1

0 = 160p² + 4p − 24

0 = 40p² + p − 6

0 = (5p + 2) (8p − 3)

p = -2/5 or 3/8

Evaluating functions
spayn [35]

(-1/4)x + 2 = 8

Multiply all terms by 4.

(-1)x + 8 = 32

Simplify.

-x + 8 = 32

Subtract 8 from both sides.

-x = 24

Multiply both sides by -1.

x = -24.

<h3>The value of x is equal to -24.</h3>

-1/4(-24) + 2 = 8
