Complete question :

A 48 inch board in to be cut into three pieces so that the second piece is twice as long as the first, and the third piece in 3 times as long as the first. If x represents the length of the first, find the lengths of all three

Answer:

Length of first piece = x = 8

Length of second = 2x = 8*2 = 16

Length of third = 3x = 8 * 3 = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Length of first piece = x

Length of second = 2x

Length of third = 3x

The total lengtb of board = 48 inches

Hence,

First + second + third = 48

x + 2x + 3x = 48

6x = 48

x = 48 / 6

x = 8

Length of first piece = x = 8

Length of second = 2x = 8*2 = 16

Length of third = 3x = 8 * 3 = 24

What is the y-intercept of the graph of the equation y=4(3^x)?
eimsori [14]

Answer:

The y-intercept is (0, 4).

Step-by-step explanation:

At the y-intercept x = 0 so

y = 4(3^0)

y = 4*1 = 4.

So the y-intercept is (0, 4).
