Answer:
Y intercept= - 3
X intercept= 6
Step-by-step explanation:
You can find the y and x intercepts by simply plugging in 0 for x and y and solving the equation from there.
Answer:
5.2
Step-by-step explanation:
distance(Mercury, Sun) = 5.8 x 10^7
distance(Venus, Sun) = 1.1 x 10^8
distance(Venus, Mars) = 1.1 x 10^8 - 5.8 x 10^7
The subtraction is a little easier if you borrow a power of 10 from the 10^8, multiplying 1.1 by 10.
simply subtract 5.8 from 11.0.
This gives us a result of 5.2 x 10^7.
Using the Pythagorean theorem we can solve for x.
x^2 + 6^2 = 10^2
Simplify:
x^2 + 36 = 100
Subtract 36 from both sides:
x^2 = 64
x = √64
x = 8
6x^2+14x-12 is the answer
