well, x-intercept means for a graphed funciton where the x-axis gets touched/intercepted, Check the picture below, when that occurs, y = 0, so if we want to know what "x" is at that point we can simply set y = 0 and solve for "x".
![-3x-5y=12\implies \stackrel{\textit{setting y = 0}}{-3x-5(0) =12}\implies -3x-0=12 \\\\\\ -3x=12\implies x=\cfrac{12}{-3}\implies x = -4 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ ~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{coordinates}}{(-4~~,~~0)}~\hfill](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-3x-5y%3D12%5Cimplies%20%5Cstackrel%7B%5Ctextit%7Bsetting%20y%20%3D%200%7D%7D%7B-3x-5%280%29%20%3D12%7D%5Cimplies%20-3x-0%3D12%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20-3x%3D12%5Cimplies%20x%3D%5Ccfrac%7B12%7D%7B-3%7D%5Cimplies%20x%20%3D%20-4%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5B-0.35em%5D%20~%5Cdotfill%5C%5C%5C%5C%20~%5Chfill%20%5Cstackrel%7B%5Ctextit%7Bcoordinates%7D%7D%7B%28-4~~%2C~~0%29%7D~%5Chfill)

Answer:</h2>
Luke does a work of 308Nm
<h2>
Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
If we have a constant force 
that acts on a body in the same direction as the displacement 
, then the work 
is defined as the product of the force magnitude 
and the displacement magnitude 
. In other words:
, which is valid for a constant force in direction of straight-line displacement.
In this problem:
Therefore:
Answer:
4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the height of the tower when finished.
We have been given that Priya takes a break when the tower is 2 and 1/2 feet tall, which is 5/8 of the height of the tower she wants to build.
This means that 5/8 of x equals 2 and 1/2. Let us represent this information in an equation.
5/8*x=2 and 1/2
Let us convert our given mixed fraction into an improper fraction.
5/8*x=5/2
Let us multiply both sides of our equation by 8/5.
8/5*5/8*x=5/2*8/5
x=8/2
x=4
You have the correct answer being (-5,3). Simply add the parentheses around the point
