Answer:

x = 16, x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a line parallel to a side of a triangle and it intersects the other 2 sides, then it divides those sides proportionally, that is

\frac{x+8}{20} = \frac{2x-5}{22.5} ( cross- multiply )

20(2x - 5) = 22.5(x + 8)

40x - 100 = 22.5x + 180 ( subtract 22.5x from both sides )

17.5x - 100 = 180 ( add 100 to both sides )

17.5x = 280 ( divide both sides by 17.5 )

x = 16

----------------------------------------------------------------

\frac{2x+8}{28} = \frac{5x-4}{82-28} = \frac{5x-4}{54} ( cross- multiply )

28(5x - 4) = 54(2x + 8)

140x - 112 = 108x + 432 ( subtract 108x from both sides )

32x - 112 = 432 ( add 112 to both sides )

32x = 544 ( divide both sides by 32 )

x = 17

State the y-coordinate of the y-intercept for the function below.
marta [7]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

y-intercept is defined as the point where the graph crosses the y-axis. The value of x coordinate at this point is zero, as along entire y-axis, the value of x coordinate is always zero. So substituting x = 0 in the function will give us the y-coordinate of the y-intercept of the given function.

f(x)=x^{3}-x^{2} -x+1

Substituting x = 0 in this function, we get:

f(0)=0^{3}-0^{2}-0+1=1

Thus, the y-coordinate of the y-intercept is 1. Therefore the y-intercept of the function in ordered pair will be: (0, 1)

Rashid [163]

Answer:

1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

1/6 × 3/4

Multiply across top, then bottom

1×3=3

6×4=24

Then reduce if necessary.

3/24

Divide top and bottom by 3

3÷3=1

24÷3=8

You should get 1/8
