Answer:

x- intercept = - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - \frac{1}{2} and c = - 2 , then

y = - \frac{1}{2} x - 2 ← equation of line

To find the x- intercept let y = 0

0 = - \frac{1}{2} x - 2 ( add 2 to both sides )

2 = - \frac{1}{2} x ( multiply both sides by - 2 to clear the fraction )

- 4 = x

The x- intercept is - 4

An equilateral triangle has a perimeter of 48 centimeters. If the triangle is dilated by a factor of 0.75, what is the length of
elena55 [62]
The length of each side is 28 cm. 
the perimeter of the equilateral triangle is 48 cm. To find each side of the original triangle, you do 48/3=16cm. since the triangle dilate by 0.75, then you can just do 0.75*16=12cm. then you have to add 12 to 16 because the triangle gets bigger by 12 cm. so 16+12=28 cm.

In every triangle,if one of those three angles has his measure more than 90°,then the triangle is optuse.
If all three angles are 60°,it means the triangle equiangular.

If one of those three angles is equal to 90°,the triangle is right.

If all the angles of the triangle have their measure less than 90°,the triangle is acute.

_____________________________________________________________

Your triangle has an angle bigger than 90°,it means the triangle is optuse.
