Whenever you have the answers for TOTAL MILES RUN and HOW MANY HOURS RUN (which you do), just divide the total miles by the amount of hours!
So, do 231 / 10.5
This is equal to 22!
x intercept = where the function crosses the x axis (x,0)
y intercept = where the function crosses the y-axis (0,y)
A. y=7/2x-2
x intercept , replace y by 0 and solve for x:
0 =7/2x-2
2= 7/2 x
2 / (7/2) = x
x= 4/7
y-intercept, replace x by 0 and solve for y
y= 7/2x-2
y= 7/2 (0) -2
y=-2
B.
x-intercept:
x=-3
y-intercept
0=-3
It doesn't have a y-intercept.
BECAUSE THERE IS A Y AXIS AND AN X AXIS THOSE R THE 2 GIVIN LINES
Check the picture below, so the parabola looks more or less like so, with a vertex at (0 , -7), let's recall the vertex is half-way between the focus point and the directrix.
so this horizontal parabola opens up to the left-hand-side, meaning that the "P" distance is a negative value.
