A line containing the points (9, 1) and (5, 5) intersects the x -axis at what point?

Mathematics

Troyanec [42]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

It intersects the x-axis at x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find slope <em>m</em>

m = (5 - 1)/(5 - 9)

m = 4/-4

m = -1

y = -x + b

Step 2: Find <em>b</em>

5 = -5 + b

b = 10

Step 3: Rewrite equation

y = -x + 10

Step 4: Find <em>x</em> when <em>y</em> = 0

0 = -x + 10

-10 = -x

x = 10

So the graph crosses the x-axis at 10.

Solve the system. <br> 3x+2y=-2 6x-Y=-6
Ipatiy [6.2K]
So we assume that x=x and y=y is true for both situations so

3x+2y=-2
6x-y=6



6x-y=6
add y to both sides
6x=6+y
subtract 6 from both sides
6x-6=y
subsitute (6x-6) for y in first equation
3x+2(6x-6)=-2
distribute
3x+12x-12=-2
add like terms
15x-12=-2
add 12 to both sides
15x=10
divide both sides by 15
x=2/3
subsitute
3x+2y=-2
3(2/3)+2y=-2
6/3+2y=-2
2+2y=-2
subtract 2 from both sides
2y=-4
divide both sides by 2
y=-2

x=2/3
y=-2
solution in (x,y) form
(2/3,-2)

Answer:

243cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

By Pythagoras' Theorem,

height of the prism ^2 + 5.4^2 = 7.8^2

height of the prism = ±√(7.8^2 -5.4^2) = ±5.6285cm (5s.f.) (rej. - 5.6285 since height > 0cm)

volume of the prism = 1/2 x 5.4 x 5.6285 x 16 = 243cm^3 (3s.f.)
