Answer:

x - intercept = 0 and y - intercept = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the two point slope intercept form, the formula is;

(y - y1)/(x - x1) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

We are given the intercepts to be at

(2,1) and (6,3).

So, x1 = 2 and x2 = 6,while y1 = 1 and y2 = 3

Plugging into the equation, we have;

(y - 1)/(x - 2) = (3 - 1)/(6 - 2)

(y - 1)/(x - 2) = 2/4

(y - 1)/(x - 2) = 1/2

Cross multiply to get;

2(y - 1) = x - 2

2y - 2 = x - 2

2y = x

Now, the x intercept will occur at y = 0.

Thus,

2(0) = x

x = 0

Also, the y intercept occurs when x = 0.

So, 2y = 0

y = 0

x - intercept occurs at (0,0) and y - intercept occurs at (0,0)

viva [34]

Answer:

5/9

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 5 * 3^x

Let x = -2

f(-2) = 5 * 3^-2

We know a^-b = 1/a^b

     = 5 * 1/3^2

    = 5/9

Answer:

52.9 inches .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the triangular indentation has an area of 100 in.² and the base and height of this traingle are represented by expressions 3x and x+3 respectively . We need to find out the <u>perimeter </u>to the nearest tenth.

As we know that the area of triangle is ,

\rm\longrightarrow Area_{\triangle}=\dfrac{1}{2}(base)(height)

Substituting the respective values,

\rm\longrightarrow 100\ =\dfrac{1}{2}(x+3)(3x)\\\\\rm\longrightarrow 2(100) = 3x(x+3)\\\\\rm\longrightarrow200 = 3x^2+9x\\\\\rm\longrightarrow 3x^2+9x-200=0

On using the <u>Quadratic</u><u> formula</u> , we have;

\rm\longrightarrow x =\dfrac{-9\pm\sqrt{9^2-4(3)(-200)}}{2(3)} \\\\\rm\longrightarrow x =\dfrac{-9\pm \sqrt{81+1200}}{6}\\\\\rm\longrightarrow x =\dfrac{-9\pm \sqrt{1281}}{6}

On simplifying above , we will get ,

\rm\longrightarrow x = 6.802,-9.802

Since sides can't be negative, therefore,

\rm\longrightarrow\underline{\underline{ x =6.802}}

Therefore ,

  • \rm\longrightarrow Base = 3x =3(6.802)in = 20.406\ in\\
  • \rm\longrightarrow Height = x +3=6.802+3=9.802\ in

Next let's find out the <u>hypotenuse </u>using Pythagoras theorem, as ;

\rm\longrightarrow h=\sqrt{ b^2+p^2}\\

\rm\longrightarrow h =\sqrt{ (20.406)^2+(9.802)^2}\\

\rm\longrightarrow h =\sqrt{416.40+96.07}\\

\rm\longrightarrow h = 22.63\ in

Now we may find perimeter as ,

\rm\longrightarrow P = p + b + h \\

\rm\longrightarrow P = (22.63 + 9.802 + 20.406)in.

\\\rm\longrightarrow P = 52.89 \ in.\\

\rm\longrightarrow \underline{\underline{ Perimeter = 52.9\ in .}}

A girafees hunger level depends on the size of its last meal what is the independent variable
Ray Of Light [21]
Independent variables are the things that change to see the affect of the dependant variable. In this case, the size of the last meal changes and affects the giraffes hunger level. The size of its last meal is the independent variable.
