Answer:

x-intercept: (3, 0)

y-intercept: (0, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

For a function like:

y = f(x)

The x-intercept is the value of x when y = 0

the y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0

Also remember that an ordered pair is written as (x, y).

In this case we have the equation:

2*x + 3*y = 6

For the x-intercept, we just replace y by zero in the equation, then we get:

2*x + 3*0 = 6

Solving this for x, we get:

2*x = 6

x = 6/2 = 3

Then in this case, the ordered pair for the x-intercept is (3, 0)

For the y-intercept, we just need to replace x by zero in the equation:

2*0 + 3*y = 6

Solving this for y, we get:

3*y = 6

y = 6/3 = 2

Then the ordered pair for the y-intercept is (0, 2)

Which expressions are equivalent to 4(x+1) + 7(x+3)? Select two answers.

Natalija [7]

Answer:

9(x+3) + 2(x+3) or 10(x+2) +(x+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

First you want to distribute the equation.

4(x+1) + 7(x+3) multiplied out is

4x + 4 + 7x + 21

Now we add like terms so it comes out to

11x + 25

Two expressions that can come out to equal 11x + 25 is. 9(x+3) + 2(x+3) or 10(x+2) +(x+5)

How do you get the average of something

kogti [31]

The mean is the average of the numbers. It is easy to calculate: add up all the numbers, then divide by how many numbers there are. In other words it is the sum divided by the count.

use the general slicing method to find the volume of The solid whose base is the triangle with vertices (0 comma 0 ), (15 comma

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

volume V of the solid

$\boxed{V=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{12}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The situation is depicted in the picture attached

(see picture)

First, we divide the segment [0, 5] on the X-axis into n equal parts of length 5/n each

[0, 5/n], [5/n, 2(5/n)], [2(5/n), 3(5/n)],..., [(n-1)(5/n), 5]

Now, we slice our solid into n slices.

Each slice is a quarter of cylinder 5/n thick and has a radius of

-k(5/n) + 5 for each k = 1,2,..., n (see picture)

So the volume of each slice is

$\displaystyle\frac{\pi(-k(5/n) + 5 )^2*(5/n)}{4}$

for k=1,2,..., n

We then add up the volumes of all these slices

$\displaystyle\frac{\pi(-(5/n) + 5 )^2*(5/n)}{4}+\displaystyle\frac{\pi(-2(5/n) + 5 )^2*(5/n)}{4}+...+\displaystyle\frac{\pi(-n(5/n) + 5 )^2*(5/n)}{4}$

Notice that the last term of the sum vanishes. After making up the expression a little, we get

$\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\left[(-(5/n)+5)^2+(-2(5/n)+5)^2+...+(-(n-1)(5/n)+5)^2\right]=\\\\\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}(-k(5/n)+5)^2$

But

$\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}(-k(5/n)+5)^2=\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}((5/n)^2k^2-(50/n)k+25)=\\\\\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\left((5/n)^2\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k^2-(50/n)\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k+25(n-1)\right)$

we also know that

$\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k^2=\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)(2n-1)}{6}$

and

$\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k=\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)}{2}$

so we have, after replacing and simplifying, the sum of the slices equals

$\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\left((5/n)^2\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k^2-(50/n)\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k+25(n-1)\right)=\\\\=\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\left(\displaystyle\frac{25}{n^2}.\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)(2n-1)}{6}-\displaystyle\frac{50}{n}.\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)}{2}+25(n-1)\right)=\\\\=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{24}.\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)(2n-1)}{n^3}$

Now we take the limit when n tends to infinite (the slices get thinner and thinner)

$\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{24}\displaystyle\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty}\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)(2n-1)}{n^3}=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{24}\displaystyle\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty}(2-3/n+1/n^2)=\\\\=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{24}.2=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{12}$

and the volume V of our solid is

$\boxed{V=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{12}}$
