Answer:  

The graph is attached.

 - The meaning of the  x-intercept is: <em>The number of muffins she made by using all of teaspoons of chocolate chips</em>

- The meaning of the y-intercept: <em>The number of teaspoons of chocolate chips she had before she made any muffin.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation of the line:

y=-\frac{3}{2}x+15

We need to find the x-intercept and the y-intercept.

To find the x-intercept, we must substitute y=0 into the equation and solve for "x":

0=-\frac{3}{2}x+15\\\\-15=-\frac{3}{2}x\\\\(-15)(-\frac{2}{3})=x\\\\x=10

To find the x-intercept, we can substitute x=0 into the equation and evaluate:

y=-\frac{3}{2}(0)+15\\\\y=15

Now we know that the line passes through these points:

(10,0)\\\\(0,15)

Then we can graph the equation.

The graph is attached.

Then, analizing the graph, we can conclude that:

- The meaning of the  x-intercept is: <em>The number of muffins she made by using all the teaspoons of chocolate chips.</em>

- The meaning of the y-intercept: <em>The number of teaspoons of chocolate chips she had before she made any muffin.</em>

The length of a rectangle is 6 more than twice its width. The
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

The answer is option (C). The width of the rectangle=6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Step 1: Determine the dimensions of the rectangle</em>

width=w

length=w+6

<em>Step 2: Determine the perimeter of the rectangle</em>

P=2(L+W)

where;

P=perimeter

L=length

W=width

In our case;

P=36 inches

L=w+6

w=w

replacing;

2(w+w+6)=36

2(2 w+6)=36

4 w+12=36

4 w=36-12=24

4 w=24

w=24/4=6

W=6 inches

L=6+6=12 inches

The width of the rectangle=6 inches
