Answer: Joe has initial amount of $12 ( when he played no game).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Joe took $12 to the arcade. Each game cost $.50 to play.

This situation can be modeled with the equation y =-0.50 x+ 12.

Here,

Money Joe has remaining is repreesnted by 'y', and the number of games he plays is represented by 'x'.

Since y-intercept gives the initial value of the function when x=0.

To find y-intercept , we out x=0 in funtion , we get

y=-0.50(0)+12=12

So , y-intercept of this function is at y=12.

Meaning of the y-intercept in the terms of this problem :

Joe has initial amount of $12 ( when he played no game).

Answer:

y-intercept is 12 and y-intercept shows the fixed cost of arcade, i.e., $12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note : The given equation is not correct.

It is given that Joe took $12 to the arcade and each game cost $0.50 to play.

This situation can be modeled with the equation

y=0.50x+12

where, y is total cost of playing x games.

We need to find y-intercept.

Substitute x=0 in the above equation to find the y-intercept of the equation.

y=0.50(0)+12

y=0+12

y=12

So, the y-intercept is 12.

Here y-intercept represents the total cost if the number of games is zero.

It means y-intercept shows the fixed cost of arcade, i.e., 12.

What’s the correct answer for this question?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Last answer choice

Step-by-step explanation:

The AAS congruence theorem uses two adjacent angles, followed by a side length on the side (not in between the angles.) Therefore, the first answer is ruled out (because it deals with angles and not sides), and the second answer is ruled out because it involves side lengths between angles. LP=MO may be true, but it does not compare the two triangles that we are interested in. However, the last answer choice is correct, because a midpoint divides a line exactly in half, meaning that both halves are the same length and therefore congruent. Therefore, the last answer choice is correct. Hope this helps!
