The two lines y=2x+8 and y=2x-12 intersect at x-axis at P nad Q. work out the distance PQ

Mathematics

Vikentia [17]4 years ago

ANSWER

|PQ|=10

EXPLANATION

The first line is

y=2x+8

We put y=0 to find the x-intercept.

0=2x+8

-2x=8

x=-4

(-4,0) are the coordinates of P.

The second equation is

y=2x-12

To find the x-intercept, we put x=0 into the formula:

0=2x-12

-2x=-12

x=6

The coordinates of Q are (0,6).

The distance between these two points.

|PQ|=|6--4|=10

What annual rate of interest would you have to earn on an investment of $3500 to ensure receiving $273.00 interest after 1 year?
kogti [31]

To find the answer, we will have to find the percentage of $273 to $ 3500, and we can use the formula:

\frac{interest received}{investment amount} \times 100%

In this case:

273/3500 x 100%

=39/500 x 100%

=7.8%

Therefore the annual interest rate would be 7.8%.

Hope it helps!
