How do you solve for a y and x intercept?

Mathematics

FrozenT [24]3 years ago
3 0

For a y-intercept, set x = 0 in your equation. Remember that a y-intercept intercepts the y-axis, which is found at x = 0. Thus, setting x = 0 will give you the place where your equation intercepts the y-axis.


For an x-intercept, do the opposite, set y = 0. This is because the x-axis is found at y = 0. Similar to the y-intercept, this will find you the point where your equation intercepts the x-axis.

Which pair of undefined terms is used to define a ray?
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

A point and a line.

Further explanation:

Ray is part of the line with one endpoint. Ray is an endless straight path in one direction from a starting point, e.g., .

The arrow above the point shows the direction of the longitudinal beam. The length of the ray cannot be calculated.

Undefined terms are basic figure that is not defined in terms of other figures. The undefined terms (or primitive terms) in geometry are a point, line, and plane.

These key terms cannot be mathematically defined using other known words.

A point represents a location and has no dimension (size).  It is labeled with a capital letter and a dot.

A line is an infinite number of points extending in opposite directions that have only one dimension. It has one dimension. It is a straight path and no thickness.

A plane is a flat surface that contains many points and lines.  A plane extends infinitely in all four directions.  It is two-dimensional.  Three noncollinear points determine a plane, as there is exactly one plane that can go through these points.

To start break even they need to sell 100 but if they want to make profit they need to sell 101 because you can use the equation y = .75x - 55

The formula v equals the square root of the quantity 64 multiplied by h end of quantity gives the velocity v in feet per second
NemiM [27]
The equation is derived from the conservation of energy, specifically from potential energy stored at a given height in a gravitational field.

When potential energy is completely converted to kinetic energy you have:

(mv^2)/2=mgh  divide both sides by the mass m

v^2/2=gh  multiply both sides by 2

v^2=2gh take the square root of both sides

v=√(2gh)  and working with imperial units for acceleration due to gravity, g=-32ft/s^2

v=√(-64h)  but the change of h as it falls is negative h so

v=-√(64h) so if an object falls from a height of 88ft we have:

v=-√(64*84)

v=-√5376

v≈-73.32 ft/sec (to the nearest hundredth of a foot per second)

Note that this is the velocity, it is negative 73.32 ft/sec.

The question inadvertently asked for velocity and provided answers for SPEED.  Velocity is a vector and has both magnitude and direction, whereas speed just has magnitude.

So its final speed is 73.32 ft/sec

So if they actually wanted velocity none of their answers is correct :P

A realtor's commission is directly proportional to the selling price of a house. Mr. Wiley earned a commission of $9,200 on a ho
Salsk061 [2.6K]
<span>Mr. Wiley earned a commission of $9,200 on a house that sold for $184,000.
</span><span>At this rate, Mr. Wiley's commission be on a house that sells for $250,000 = ?
commission = price of house sold
$9,200 = $184,000 
multiply both sides with $250,000
$9,200 x </span>$250,000 = $184,000 x $250,000
when the price is $250,000, the commission will be;
($9,200 x $250,000) / $184,000 = $250,000
$2300000/$184 = $250,000
$12,500 = $250,000
Thus, the commission is $12,500.
