Find the x-intercept and y-intercept

Mathematics
1 answer:
Aneli [31]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x - intercept:  (-22, 0)

y - intercept: (0, 11)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the linear equation

-3x + 11y = 66

<em><u>Determining the x-intercept</u></em>

We know that the x-intercept can be computed by setting the value y=0 and solving for x.

substitute y = 0

-3x + 11y = 66

-3x + 11(0) = 66

-3x + 0 = 66

-3x = 66

Divide both sides by -3

-3x/-3 = 66/-3

x = -22

Thus, the ordered pair representing the x-intercept : (-22, 0)

<em><u>Determining the y-intercept</u></em>

We know that the y-intercept can be computed by setting the value x=0 and solving for y.

substitute x = 0

-3x + 11y = 66

-3(0) + 11y = 66

0 + 11y = 66

11y = 66

Divide both sides by 11

11y/11 = 66/6

y = 11

Thus, the ordered pair representing the y-intercept : (0, 11)

Therefore, we conclude that:

x - intercept:  (-22, 0)

y - intercept: (0, 11)

Anni [7]

Answer: the cost of each bush is $15

the cost of each flower is $2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of each bush.

Let y represent the cost of each flower.

Portia bought 12 bushes and 30 flowers for $240 to plant in her yard. This is expressed as

12x + 30y = 240- - - - - - - - - - -1

Later, she realized she did not have enough plants and bought 7 more bushes and 10 more flowers for $125. This is expressed as

7x + 10y = 125- - - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 7 and equation 2 by 12, it becomes

84x + 210y = 1680

84x + 120y = 1500

Subtracting, it becomes

90y = 180

y = 180/90

y = 2

Substituting y = 2 into equation 1, it becomes

12x + 30 × 2 = 240

12x + 60 = 240

12x = 240 - 60 = 180

x = 180/12

x = 15
