Why do you think we need a horizontal axis and a vertical axis?

A vertical line on a sheet of lined graph paper is a vertical axis (normally called the X axis) that denotes everything to the left of the line is negative and everything to the right is positive. A horizontal line on that graph paper (normally called the Y axis) denotes everything below the line is negative and every thing above is positive. Each axis is graduated in scale. The equation X=Y has no single answer, but we can plot a locus of points on your graph by assigning values to X ( or Y) and create a diagonal line which passes thru the origin (where the lines cross) that denotes all possible answers to the equation that exist within the limits of the graph paper. Every equation will plot a locus of points.

the width of a rectangle is 12 cm less than the length the perimeter is 156 cm. Find the with and length
mamaluj [8]

We know that the perimeter of a rectangle is twice the length, plus twice the width.  

P = 2L + 2W  

We also know that the perimeter is 156.  

P = 156  

Finally, we know that the width is 12 less than the length.  

W = L - 12.  

The next thing that we do is substitute the information that we have into the original equation:  

P = 2L + 2W  

156 = 2L + 2(L - 12)  

From this point we start to solve  

156 = 2L + 2L - 24 <---we multiplied the '2' through the parenthesis  

156 + 24 = 2L + 2L - 24 + 24  

180 = 2L + 2L <--- getting like terms on same sides  

180 = 4L <---combining like terms  

180/4 = 4L/4 <--- getting like terms on same sides  

45 = L <---now we have a value for L  

Now we take the known value for L and substitute it in to our equation for W  

W = L - 12  

W = 45 - 12  

W = 33  

So now we have Length = 45 and Width = 33.

Let f(x)=15/(1+4e)^(-0.2x)<br><br> What is the y-intercept of the graph of f(x) ?
sergejj [24]
That means when x=0
e^-0.2x =e^0=1
So f(0)=15/5=3
