y= mx+b

y= 5x-1

x- intercept (y=0)

0= 5x-1

Move -1 to the other side. Sign changes from -1 to +1

O+1= 5x-1+1

1= 5x

Divide by 5 for 1 and 5x

1/5= 5x/5

x= 1/5

y- intercept ( x= 0)

y= 5x-1

y= 5(0)-1

y= -1

Answer : x-intercept = 1/5 and y-intercept = -1 ( third choice)

A race car game takes 6 points from a player each time the player hits a cone. What integer represents the change in total point
Helga [31]

Given:

A race car game takes 6 points from a player each time the player hits a cone.

To find:

The integer which represents the change in total points if the player hits 10 cones.

Solution:

According to the given information,

1 hit = -6 points

Here, negative sign represents the reduction in points after hitting a cone.

If the player hits 10 cones.

(1 × 10) hit = (-6 × 10) points

10 hit = -60 points

So, the change in total points if the player hits 10 cones is -60.

Therefore, the required integer is -60.
