Find the x.intercept and the y.intercept of the graph of each quation. Then graph the equation

1 answer:

7 0

X intercept is where the graph hits the x axis or where y=0
y intercept is where the graph hits the y axis or where x=0

3x-2y=-12

x intercept
set y=0
3x-0=-12
3x=-12
divide by 3
x=-4
x intercept is at x=-4 or (-4,0)

y intercept
x=0
0-2y=-12
-2y=-12
divide -2
y=6
y intercept is y=6 or (0,6)

xintercept: (-4,0)
yintercept: (0,6)

The height of josie’s dog 11 1/4 inches to the nearest quarter inch and 11 inches to the nearest half inch.which measurement is

Lisa [10]

Both measurements are correct if you're rounding the dogs height.

But the more precise measurement would be 11 1/4.

Mainly because its a smaller fraction so it has more meaning to it instead of just plain 11

It would get more precise as the fraction got larger
For example.

Not very precise
11, 11 1/2, 11 1/4,

Precise
11 1/8, 11 1/16

Hope this helps!
Brainliest is always appreciated if you feel its deserved!<span />

shutvik [7]

Answer:

$- \frac{23}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2}{5} \div \frac{ - 1}{2} - \frac{3}{2}$

➡️ $- \frac{2}{5} \times 2 - \frac{3}{2}$

➡️ $- \frac{4}{5} - \frac{3}{2}$

➡️ $- \frac{23}{10}$

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-2,0) and has a slope of -2

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

y = -2x -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line, and b is the y-intercept. We are told that the slope of the line is -2, so we can start with

y = mx + b

y = -2x + b

We can figure out the value of b by plugging in the coordinates of the point given (-2, 0)

0 = -2(-2) + b

0 = 4 + b

Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation

-4 = b

Then plug that value of b back into the equation above:

y = -2x + (-4) or y = -2x -4
