What are the x and y-intercepts of the line?

Mathematics

natta225 [31]3 years ago

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y-intercept, plug in x=0 in the original equation. (You want to find what y is when x=0)

2x + 3y = -12

2(0) + 3y = -12 (Plug in x=0)

3y = -12 (2*0=0, so you can ignore that part)

y = -4 (Divide both sides by 3)

This narrows down our choices to either A or B.


To find the x-intercept, plug in y=0 into the original equation. (You want to find what x is when y=0)

2x + 3y = -12

2x + 3(0) = -12 (Plug in y=0)

2x = -12 (3*0=0, so you can ignore that part)

x = -6 (Divide both sides by 2)


If our x intercept is -6 and our y intercept is -4, that makes our answer B.

1. For the function f(x) = x2, Find the slope of the secant line joining (1,f(1)) and
goblinko [34]

The slope of the line connecting two points (<em>a</em>, <em>b</em>) and (<em>c</em>, <em>d</em>) is

(<em>d</em> - <em>b</em>) / (<em>c</em> - <em>a</em>)

i.e. the change in the <em>y</em>-coordinate divided by the change in the <em>x</em>-coordinate. For a function <em>y</em> = <em>f(x)</em>, this slope is the slope of the secant line connecting the two points (<em>a</em>, <em>f(a)</em> ) and (<em>c</em>, <em>f(c)</em> ), and has a value of

(<em>f(c)</em> - <em>f(a)</em> ) / (<em>c</em> - <em>a</em>)

Here, we have

<em>f(x)</em> = <em>x</em> ²

so that

<em>f</em> (1) = 1² = 1

<em>f</em> (1.01) = 1.01² = 1.0201

Then the slope of the secant line is

(1.0201 - 1) / (1.01 - 1) = 0.0201 / 0.01 = 2.01

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

195

Step-by-step explanation:

Let wining name have, x votes

1st = x

2nd = x - 53

3rd = x - 79

4th = x - 105

x + (x - 53) + (x - 79) + (x - 105) = 963

x + x - 53 + x - 79 + x - 105 = 963

4x - 237 = 963

4x = 963 + 237

4x = 1200

x = 1200 / 4

x = 300

4th = x - 105

x - 105 = 300 - 105 = 195
