Answer:
x-intercept = -6
<h2>y-intercept = -21</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
x - intercept is for y = 0
y - intercept is for x = 0.
We have y = -2x - 21.
Substitute:
x = 0 → y = -2(0) - 12 = 0 - 12 = -12
y = 0 → 0 = -2x - 12 <em>add 2x to both sides</em>
2x = -12 <em>divide both sides by 2</em>
x = -6
Answer:
30 Chairs
Step-by-step explanation:
I will solve this problem using algebra and try to explain in detail.
We can form two equations with the information given to us.
Firstly, 5 times a length of chairs (I will call this unknown length of chairs x), plus 5 left over chairs, equals the total number of chairs (I will call the total number of chairs y).
5x + 5 = y
Secondly, 3 times a length of chairs (I will call this unknown length of chairs x), plus 15 left over chairs, equals the total number of chairs (I will call the total number of chairs y).
3x + 15 = y
Since both equations are equal to y, they are equal to each other
5x + 5 = 3x + 15
Take 5 away from both sides of the equals, and take away 3x from both sides of the equals
5x - 3x = 15 - 5
2x = 10
Divide both sides by 2
x = 5 chairs
Put this back into either the first equation or the second to solve for y
3 (5) + 15 = y
15 + 15 = y
y = 30 chairs
this has incomplete info, as we do not know how much paper a smaller card would take.
However, subtract 3 from 33 as for aimi’s closest friends, resulting in 30 and then divide that by the amount of paper the smaller cards would take
ex. if the smaller card took 1/3 of a page, 30 divided by 1/3= 90
hope this helps :)
