Answer:

(2, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, elimination would be the most efficient means of solving.

Simply, add the two equations, and you will be left with only one variable to solve for. (In this case y) You are then able to take your solution and plug it into an equation and solve for x, therefore giving you their intercept.\

5x + 10y = 30

-5x + 15y = 20

(x's cancel) 25y = 50

25y = 50

y = 2

5x + 10(2) = 30

5x + 20 = 30

5x = 10

x = 2

The solution to this equation is (2, 2)

1) Answer: The part of the quadratic formula tells us whether the quadratic equation can be solved by factoring is b^2-4ac

2) 4x^2+6x+2=0
ax^2+bx+c=0; a=4, b=6, c=2
b^2-4ac=(6)^2-4(4)(2)=36-32
b^2-4ac=4

Answer: b^2-4ac=4

You design a new app for cell phones. Your revenue for x downloads is given by f(x) = 3x Your profit

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

p = 2.7x - 20

p(90) = $223

Step-by-step explanation:

revenue → f(x) = 3x ,where x is the number of downloads.

the statement “Your profit p is $20 less than 90% of the revenue for x downloads”

means

$p=90\% f\left( x\right) -20$

means

$p=\frac{90}{100} \times f\left( x\right) -20$

means

$p=\frac{9}{10} \times (3x) -20$

means

$p=\frac{9}{10} \times (3x) -20$

means

$p=2.7x -20$

………………………………

the profit for 90 downloads :

= p(90)

= 2.7×(90) - 20

= $223

A. equation: y = -3x - 2

B. y-intercept: -2

Solution:

Given that,

Write the equation 12x = - 4y - 8 in slope-intercept form

The slope intercept form is given as:

$y = mx + c$

Where,

m is the slope and "c" is the y intercept

From given

$12x = -4y - 8\\\\Rewrite\\\\-4y-8 = 12x\\\\Move\ the\ constant\ to\ right\ side\\\\-4y = 12x + 8\\\\y = \frac{12x}{-4} + \frac{8}{-4}\\\\y = -3x -2$

Thus the slope intercept form is found

Comparing with y = mx + c ,

c = -2

Thus the y intercept is -2
