A line has a slope of –3/2 and has a y-intercept of 3. What is the x-intercept of the line?

Mathematics

Answer:

The x-intercept is (2, 0).

Step-by-step explanation:

First write the equation of this line:  y = (-3/2)x + 3.

At the x-intercept, y = 0.  So, we set the above equation equal to 0 and solve for the x-intercept:

0 = (-3/2)x + 3, or

(3/2)x = 3, or x/2 = 1.  Thus, x = 2.

The x-intercept is (2, 0).

Which answer is correct
andre [41]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

The first choice,  Pi + (-Pi) = 0

Discussion:

Pi is an irrational number. Saying the irrational numbers <u>are</u> closed under addition means if we add two irrational numbers we will get another irrational number. In our case, Pi + (-Pi) = 0, which is correct, BUT 0 is a <u>rational </u>number. This shows the set of irrational numbers is NOT closed under addition.

Thank you,

MrB

I have k quarters, five less quarters than nickels and one more than twice as many dimes as quarters. Find the value of the coin
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

(35k + 20) cents

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, let us have the value of each unit:

1 quarter = 25 cents

1 nickel = 5 cents

1 dime = 10 cents

Given that number of quarter = k

Quarters are 5 lesser than Nickels, so number of nickels = k+5

One more than twice as many dimes as quarters:

k = 2 \times Number of Dimes + 1

So, number of dimes = \frac{1}{2}(k-1)

Value of quarters = 25 \times k cents

Value of nickels = 5 \times (k+5) = (5k+25)\ cents

Value of dimes = \frac{1}{2}(k-1) \times 10 = (5k-5)\ cents

So, total value of coins =

25k + 5k +25 +5k-5\\\Rightarrow (35k+20)\ cents

Is the line through points p(-7,8) and q(-5,-6) parallel to the line throuh points R(3,-5) and S(-2,0)? explain.
BARSIC [14]
I'm going to use the slope formula which is
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the two points the line goes through

Slope of line PQ
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (-6 - 8)/(-5 - (-7))
m = (-6 - 8)/(-5 + 7)
m = (-14)/(2)
m = -7
The slope of line PQ is -7

Slope of RS
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (0 - (-5))/(-2 - 3)
m = (0 + 5)/(-2 - 3)
m = (5)/(-5)
m = -1
The slope of line RS is -1

Because the slopes are NOT equal (one is -7 and the other is -1), this means the lines are NOT parallel.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answer: Choice B) No, the lines have unequal slopes
