to find the x-intercept of a function, we simply set y = 0 and then solve for "x", so, let's first find the equation of it and then set y = 0.


\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-12}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{16})~\hspace{10em} slope = m\implies-\cfrac{2}{3} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-16=-\cfrac{2}{3}[x-(-12)] \\\\\\ y-16=-\cfrac{2}{3}(x+12)\implies \stackrel{\stackrel{y}{\downarrow }}{0}-16=-\cfrac{2}{3}x-8\implies -8=-\cfrac{2x}{3} \\\\\\ -24=-2x\implies \cfrac{-24}{-2}=x\implies 12=x \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ ~\hfill (12,0) ~\hfill

Answer:

6)  x = 40.5

8)  x = 16.5

Step-by-step explanation:

6) 45/x = 20/18

45/x = 10/9

10x = 405

x = 40.5

8) 22/8 = x/6

11/4 = x/6

4x = 66

PLEASE SOLVE THIS QUICKLY
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The lady gets paid $8 per hour that the shop is opened, so multiply the pay rate ($8) by the amount of hours the shop is opened
$8 * 8 = $64

Now add the $64 onto the expense of running the shop

$64 + $240 = $304

Now take that amount away from Friday's sales

$530 - $304 = $ 226

Profit($226) = Income($530) - Expenses($304)

$226 = $226

=)
