Answer:
The value of the x-coordinate is -3.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine the x-coordinate you have to look at how far the point is on the x-axis which is the sideways line of the graph.
Point W is between -3 and -4 on the x-axis which would make the x-coordinate -3.5.
Hope this helps!

THREE LINEAR EQUATIONS WITH THREE VARIABLES
A chemist has three different acid solutions. The first acid solution contains 15% acid, the second contains 25%,
and the third contains 70%. He wants to use all three solutions to obtain a mixture of 40 liters containing 45%
acid, using 2 times as much of the 70% solution as the 25% solution. How many liters of each solution should be used?
How to set up as three linear equations to find the answer?

set up 2 equations
the first equation...
15%*x+25%*y+70%*2y=45%*40
0.15x+0.25y+1.4y=0.45*40
0.15x+1.65y=18
multiply all terms by 100
15x+165y=1800
divide all terms by 15
x+11y=120
the second equation...
x+y+2y=40
x+3y=40
x=40-3y
substitute into the first equation x+11y=120
40-3y+11y=120
40+8y=120
8y=120-40
8y=80
y=80/8
y=10 liters
x+3*10=40
x+30=40
x=40-30
x=10 liters
10 liters of 15%, 10 liters of 25%, and 20 liters of 70%
check:
10*15%=1.5
10*25%=2.5
20*70%=14
1.5+2.5+14=18
18/40=9/20=45/100=45%
45%*40=18

Answer:
false
Step-by-step explanation:
The circumference can be obtained fairly easily by simply substituting the d in c = πd for the colony's given diameter of 12 mm. Performing that calculation using the approximation of π ≈ 3.14, we obtain a circumference of 12 x 3.14 = 37.68 mm.
To find the radius, remember how the diameter and radius of a circle are defined. The radius is a length extending from the center of a circle to a point on its circumference, and a diameter is a line extending from one point on the circle's circumference to an opposite point, passing through the circle's center along the way. The diameter can, in this way, be defined as twice the length of the radius, which means we can find the radius of a circle by taking half of its diameter. In this case, our diameter is 12 mm, so our radius would be 6 mm.
