Hello! The x-intercept is where the line crosses the x-axis when y = 0. We already have the expression shown. We will plug in 0 as y to get this:
5x - 8(0) = 40.
As you probably know, anything times 0 is 0, so -8 * 0 is 0. All we have is 5x = 40. Divide each side by 5 to isolate the x. 5x/5 cancels out. 40/5 is 8. There. x = 8. The x-intercept is (8, 0).
Answer:
I don't see a problem on the screen
Step-by-step explanation:
Using it's concept, it is found that there is a 0.2426 = 24.26% probability that the person selected is between 26 and 35.
<h3>What is a probability?</h3>
A probability is given by the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes</u>.
Researching this problem on the internet, it is found that there is a table containing 1113 people, and out of 1113 people, 270 are between 26 and 35, hence the probability is given by:
p = 270/1113 = 0.2426.

First divide both sides by 2 so that we can get rid of the parentheses, so we get

now subtract 5 from both sides

then finally we want x alone so we'll divide both sides by 3 and get our final answer!
