Explain why the intercepts, on their own, cannot be used to graph the relation 5x+9y= 0.

1 answer:

3 0

5x + 9y = 0

to find the x int, sub in 0 for y and solve for x
5x + 9(0) = 0
5x = 0
x = 0

to find the y int, sub in 0 for x and solve for y
5(0) + 9y = 0
9y = 0
y = 0

the reason u cannot use just the intercepts is because the line goes through the origin (0,0)....The intercepts coincide giving u only 1 point...and that is not enough to graph a line

X to the second power equals 14

X to the second power equals 14 is the same as:
$x^{2}=14$
we can take the square root of both sides to get:
$x= \sqrt{14}$
because we cannot simplify the 14 inside the square root symbol, our final answer is
$x= \sqrt{14}$
