Answer:

Definition: The x-intercept is the point where a line crosses the x-axis, and the y-intercept is the point where a line crosses the y-axis.

Example: From the graph, describe the x and y-intercepts using point notation. The graph crosses the x-axis at x = 1 and x = 3, therefore, we can write the x-intercepts as points (1,0) and (–3, 0). Similarly, the graph crosses the y-axis at y = 3. Its y-intercept can be written as the point (0,3).

The x intercept is also known as the domain
(3,6) in that ordered pair, 3 would be the domain

Solve the following system of equations using a method of your choice.

dusya [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

cant remember what this method is called but

change the second equation to be y = something

x + y = 10

y = -x + 10

plug in this y= in the first equation to get x

4x -2(-x + 10) = 4

4x + 2x -20 = 4

6x = 24

x = 4

then plug in the x we found into the original second equation

4 + y = 10

y = 6

so your ordered pair would be (4,6)

hope this helps <3

There are 24 pens in a desk drawer. The pens are either red or blue. The ratio of red pens to blue pens is 5:1. How many pens ar

Flura [38]

Answer:

The number of red pens is 20.

The number of blue pens is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that, the ratio of number of red pens to the number of blue pens is 5 : 1.

∴ Let us assume that the number of red pens be 5x and number of blue pens be x.

Total number of pens in the desk drawer = 24

Now, according to question :

Number of red pens + Number of blue pens = 24

⇒5x + x = 24

⇒6x = 24

⇒ $x=\frac{24}{6}=4$

So, number of red pens in the drawer = 5x = 5 × 4 = 20

Number of blue pens in the drawer = x = 4

OK so basically when converting 2 meters per second to kilometers per hour you will get 7.2 kilometers per hour. OK so times that by 4 and you will get 28.8 kilometers in 4 hours.
