Given:
'a' and 'b' are the intercepts made by a straight-line with the co-
ordinate axes.
3a = b and the line pass through the point (1, 3).
To find:
The equation of the line.
Solution:
The intercept form of a line is
...(i)
where, a is x-intercept and b is y-intercept.
We have, 3a=b.
...(ii)
The line pass through the point (1, 3). So, putting x=1 and y=3, we get



Multiply both sides by a.

The value of a is 2. So, x-intercept is 2.
Putting a=2 in
, we get


The value of b is 6. So, y-intercept is 6.
Putting a=2 and b=6 in (i), we get

Therefore, the equation of the required line in intercept form is
.
we are given with
The polynomial x squared plus 2x minus 24

Hence the required combination is 6x and -4x
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
let y = the number
y x 5 - 24 = -44
y x 5 = -44 + 24
y x 5 = 20
y = 20/5
y = 4
Answer:
2.5 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
(1/4) x 10 = 2.5
or .25 x 10 = 2.5
Answer:
The interest is 
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The compound interest formula is equal to
where
A is the Final Investment Value
P is the Principal amount of money to be invested
r is the rate of interest in decimal
t is Number of Time Periods
n is the number of times interest is compounded per year
in this problem we have
substitute in the formula above

<em>Find the interest</em>
