Mathematics

The easy way to find the y-intercept is to write the equation is slope intercept form as:

y = mx + c

The c will be the y-intercept.

The given equation is:

7x - 2y = 1

Re-arranging we get:

2y = 7x - 1

Divide both sides by 2, we get;

y = 7/2 x - 1/2

Compare this to the top most equation, you get the y-intercept to be -1/2

At y-intercept, the x coordinate is 0. So the ordered pair will be (0, -1/2)

Answer:
(0,-1/2)

Explanation:
The genera form of the linear equation is:
y = mx + c
where:
m is the slope
c is the y-intercept

The given equation is:
7x - 2y = 1
First, we will put the given equation in the general form as follows:
7x - 2y = 1
2y = 7x - 1
y = (7/2) x - (1/2)

Now, comparing the given equation with the general form, we would find that:
the slope (m) = 7/2
the y-intercept (c) = -1/2

The y-intercept is defined as the value of y at x = 0.
This means that the y-intercept as an order pair would be: (0,-1/2)

Hope this helps :)

A right angled triangle has sides of length 9cm, 12cm and 15cm. Calculate its area in square centimetres.
Dmitriy789 [7]

The area of a right angled triangle with sides of length 9cm, 12cm and 15cm in square centimeters is 54 sq cm.

The formula to calculate the area of a right triangle is given by:

Area of Right Triangle, A = (½) × b × h square units

Where, “b” is the base (adjacent side) and “h” is the height (perpendicular side). Hence, the area of the right triangle is the product of base and height and then divide the product by 2.

We know that the hypotenuse is the longest side. So, the area of a right angled triangle will be half of the product of the remaining two sides.

Given sides of the triangle:

a=9cm

b=12cm

c=15cm

From this we know that the hypotenuse is c. Are of the triangle will be obtained by the other two sides.

∴Area = \frac{1}{2} x 9 x 12

= 54cm^{2}
