The x-intercept is -6

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the x-intercept, we put y = 0 and to find the y-intercept we put x = 0

In the given method, x is put equal to zero instead of y as x-intercept had to be found.

Given equation is:

-2x+3y=12

-2x + 3(0) = 12\\-2x +0 = 12\\-2x = 12

Dividing both sides by -2

\frac{-2x}{-2} = \frac{12}{-2}\\x = -6

The x-intercept is -6

HELP ME PLEASE!

Sounds as tho' you have an isosceles triangle (a triangle with 2 equal sides).  If this triangle is also a right triangle (with one 90-degree angle), then the side lengths MUST satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem.

Let's see whether they do.

8^2 + 8^2 = 11^2  ???
 64    + 64 = 121?  NO.  This is not a right triangle.

If you really do have 2 sides that are both of length 8, and you really do have a right triangle, then:

8^2 + 8^2 = d^2, where d=hypotenuse.  Then 64+64 = d^2, and 

d = sqrt(128) = sqrt(8*16) = 4sqrt(8) = 4*2*sqrt(2) = 8sqrt(2) = 11.3.

11 is close to 11.3, but still, this triangle cannot really have 2 sides of length 8 and one side of length 11.

This question is asking "Where does cosine equal \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}?"

Based on our unit circle values and the domain of the cos^{-1} function, we see that at 30 degrees, or \frac{\pi}{6}, cosine is equal to \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}.
