Answer:

x-intercept: 7/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercept is found by solving for x when y=0.

0 = 6x -7

7 = 6x . . . . . add 7 to both sides of the equation

7/6 = x . . . . divide both sides by 6

The x-intercept is 7/6 = 1 1/6 ≈ 1.167.

The y-intercept is the constant in the given equation: -7. The slope of 6 tells you the line rises 6 units for 1 unit to the right. So, the point (1, -1) is another point on the graph. The line through those two points, (0, -7) and (1, -1), will intersect the x-axis at x=7/6.

A castle has to be guarded 24 hours a day. Five knights are ordered to split each day's guard duty equally. How long will each k

Harman [31]

Answer:

Each knight will guard 288 minutes in one day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A castle has to be guarded 24 hours a day. Five knights are ordered to split each day's guard duty equally.

Now, to find the minutes will each night spend on guard duty in one day.

As, in 1 hour there are 60 minutes.

Thus, in 24 hour there are 60 × 24 = 1440 minutes.

Total minutes for guarding = 1440 minutes.

So, there are knights ordered for guarding are = 5.

And each day's guard duty equally.

Now, to get the minutes will each night spend on guard duty in one day we divide the total minutes for guarding by number of knights that is 5:

$1440\div5$

$=288\ minutes.$

Therefore, each knight will guard 288 minutes in one day.

Max has a rectangular plot that is 60 square meters in area. He keeps his five goats,

I am Lyosha [343]

Step-by-step explanation:

you know the area of a rectangle is length × width.

we know length = 10 m.

and we know the area = 60 m².

60 = 10×width

width = 60/10 = 6 m.

the fence is the perimeter, which is for a rectangle

2×length + 2×width

which is logical, as when you fully go around a rectangle, you have to pass the length 2 times and the width 2 times, right ?

length of fence = 2×10 + 2×6 = 20 + 12 = 32 m.
