The y-intercept is found when the x-coordinate is equal to zero, so if you plug 0 into the x-variable of the equation, you can find the intercept.

y = x - 3 Plug in 0 for x
y = 0 - 3 Subtract
y = -3 So when x = 0, then y will equal -3. This means that the y intercept of the equation will be C. (0, -3).

The y intercept is the value of y when x is equal to 0, so just set x=0 and find y!

y = 0-3
y=-3

The answer is C: (0,-3)

I hope this helped! ^-^

Answer:

$x = 5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Make an equation

$\frac{32}{40} = \frac{4}{x}$

Step 2: Cross multiply

$\frac{32}{40} = \frac{4}{x}$

$32 * x = 4 * 40$

$32x = 160$

Step 3: Divide both sides by 32

$32x / 32 = 160 / 32$

$x = 5$

Answer: $x = 5$

Okay, to start off using a number line is always useful. Negative 4 plus 5 equals 1, if it dropped by 30 which is subtracting 30 from 1 it takes 1 out of the positive zone to the negative. Which equals to negative 29.

The answer is x - 5

To solve (x^2 - 8x + 15) /(x - 3) you factor the numerator and denominator and cancel the common factors.
