Answer:
- slope = 3/2
- y-intercept = 3
- x-intercept = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is the coefficient of x when the equation is of the form ...
y = (something).
Here, we can put the equation in that form by subtracting 12x and dividing by the coefficient of y:
12x -8y = -24 . . . . . given
-8y = -12x -24 . . . . .subtract 12x
y = 3/2x +3 . . . . . . . divide by -8
This is the "slope-intercept" form of the equation. Generically, it is written ...
y = mx + b . . . . . . where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
So, the above equation answers two of your questions:
slope = 3/2
y-intercept = 3
__
The x-intercept is found fairly easily from the original equation by setting y=0:
12x = -24
x = -24/12 = -2 . . . . . the x-intercept
_____
A graph of the equation can also show you these things. The graph shows a rise of 3 units for a run of 2, so the slope is rise/run = 3/2. The line crosses the axes at x=-2 and y=3, the intercepts.
Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope = Δy/Δx
Slope = 10-10/4-1
Slope = 0/3
Slope = 0
It is a Horizontal Line

Answer:
The answer to your question is: (∞ , 3]
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember that to express an inequality, are used ( ) and [ ].
( ) are used when the point is not consider in the interval.
[ ] are used when the point is consider or is part of the interval.
Also, an empty point indicates that the number is not consider in the interval.
and, a filled point indicates that the number is consider in the interval.
For your question, the interval will be:
(∞ , 3]
Answer:
You have to do 120 divided by 0.75 use a calculator
Step-by-step explanation:
The fundamental theorem of algebra states that a polynomial with degree n has at most n solutions. The "at most" depends on the fact that the solutions might not all be real number.
In fact, if you use complex number, then a polynomial with degree n has exactly n roots.
So, in particular, a third-degree polynomial can have at most 3 roots.
In fact, in general, if the polynomial
has solutions
, then you can factor it as
![p(x) = (x-x_1)(x-x_2)\ldots (x-x_n)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=p%28x%29%20%3D%20%28x-x_1%29%28x-x_2%29%5Cldots%20%28x-x_n%29)
So, a third-degree polynomial can't have 4 (or more) solutions, because otherwise you could write it as
![p(x)=(x-x_1)(x-x_2)(x-x_3)(x-x_4)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=p%28x%29%3D%28x-x_1%29%28x-x_2%29%28x-x_3%29%28x-x_4%29)
But this is a fourth-degree polynomial.
