X intercept is when y = 0
so 1/2 x - 0 = 8
solving for x
1/2 x = 8
multiply both sides by 2
x = 16 is the y intercept

So first make it into slope intercept form y=mx+b

1/2x-3y=8
subtract 1/2x from both sides
-3y=8-1/2x
multiply both sides by -1
3y=1/2x-8
divide both sides by 3
y=1/6x-8/3

the x intercept is when y=0
so set y to zero
0=1/6x-8/3
add 8/3 to both sides
8/3=1/6x
multiply both sides by 6
16=x

the x intercept is 16

A, B & C form the vertices of a triangle.
Savatey [412]

Answer:

BC = 17.2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since CAB = 90º, this is a right triangle.

The triangle format is given below:

C

A           B

We have that AB = 8.6, and angle B measures 60º.

Length of BC:

BC is the hypotenyse.

Side AB is adjacent to angle B = 60º.

In a right triangle, angle \alpha, it's adjacent side with length s and the hypotenuse h are related by the cosine of the angle, that is:

\cos{\alpha} = \frac{s}{h}

In this question, we have an angle of 60º, with has cosine 0.5. We also have that side AB = s = 8.6, and the hypotenuse h is side BC. So

\cos{\alpha} = \frac{s}{h}

0.5 = \frac{8.6}{h}

0.5h = 8.6

h = \frac{8.6}{0.5}

h = 17.2

BC = 17.2.
