Thats when point =0. equation of a line mx +b where m is the slope
and b is the intercept
300 milliliters would be more appropriate for a soup bowl :)
To get the distance DC we proceed as follows:
AB-CD
=11-3
=8
BC=15
hence using Pythagorean theorem
c²=a²+b²
c=DC
a=BC
b=8
thus
c²=15²+8²
c²=225+64
c²=289
thus
c=√289
c=17 units
Answer: B. 17 units

8 - 3x - x = 12
8 - 2x = 12
-2x = 12 - 8
-2x = 4
x = -2
