We have that
5x - 2y = 10

we know that

Part A)
the x-intercept is when y=0
then
5x - 2y = 10------> 5x=10--------> x=10/5------> x=2

the answer Part A) is
the x intercept is the point (2,0)

Part B)
the y-intercept is when x=0
then
5x - 2y = 10------> -2y=10------> y=-10/2-----> y=-5

the answer Part B) is
the y intercept is the point (0,-5)

see the attached figure

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

sets cannot have repeated elements. So this set only has the letters B, A, L, D, E, R which means the cardinality is 6

What is the difference between x and dx?

N76 [4]

This response is based upon your having had some background in calculus. "dx" is not introduced before that.

Take a look at the sample function y = f(x) = x^2 + 9. Here x is the independent variable; the dependent variable y changes with x.

Now, for a big jump: we consider finding the area under a curve (graph) between x = a and x = b. We subdivide that interval [a,b] into n vertical slices of area. Each of those slices has its own area: f(x)*dx, where dx represents the width of such subarea. f(x)*dx is the actual subarea. To find the total area under the curve f(x) between x= a and x = b, we add up all of these individual subareas between x = a and x = b. Note that the subinterval width is

b-a

dx = ---------- , and that dx becomes smaller and smaller as the number of

n subintervals increases.

Once again, this all makes sense only if you've begun calculus (particularly integral calculus). Do not try to relate it to earlier math courses.

I need some help on my math test!!, I get to retake it but I need help with some of it:

Greeley [361]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = $\frac{1}{2}$ , thus

y = $\frac{1}{2}$ x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 4, - 9) into the partial equation

- 9 = - 2 + c ⇒ c = - 9 + 2 = - 7

y = $\frac{1}{2}$ x - 7 ← equation of line
