Answer:

The graph of the equation is also attached.

From the graph, it is clear that at x = 0, the value of y = 0

Hence, the line passes through the origin with the y-intercept 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

$y = mx+b$

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

Given that the profit y (in dollars) for a business from selling x coats is represented by the equation

$y=56x$

comparing with the slope-intercept form of the line equation

m = 56

Determining the y-intercept

We know that the value of the y-intercept can be determined by setting x = 0 and determining the corresponding value of y.

substitute x = 0 in the equation

y = 56(0)

y = 0

Thus, the y-intercept b = 1

Thus,

The equation y = 5x has:

The slope m = 56

The y-intercept b = 1

The graph of the equation is also attached.

From the graph, it is clear that at x = 0, the value of y = 0

Hence, the line passes through the origin with the y-intercept 0.

Directed numbers are numbers that have either a positive or negative sign, which can be shown on a number line. Therefore, point F is Fifteen-halves of line segment DE.

A number line is a system that can show the positions of positive or negative numbers. It has its ends ranging from negative infinity to positive infinity. Thus any directed number can be located on the line.

Directed numbers are numbers with either a negative or positive sign, which shows their direction with respect to the number line.

In the given question, the distance between points D and E is 9 units. So that dividing 9 units in the ratio of 5 to 6, we have;

$\frac{5}{6}$ x 9 = $\frac{45}{6}$

= $\frac{15}{2}$

Therefore, the location of point F, which partitions the directed line segment from d to E into a 5:6 ratio is $\frac{15}{2}$ . Thus the answer is Fifteen-halves.

Factor the polynomial. 13x² – 20x – 12

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

(13 x + 6) (x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the following:

13 x^2 - 20 x - 12

Factor the quadratic 13 x^2 - 20 x - 12. The coefficient of x^2 is 13 and the constant term is -12. The product of 13 and -12 is -156. The factors of -156 which sum to -20 are 6 and -26. So 13 x^2 - 20 x - 12 = 13 x^2 - 26 x + 6 x - 12 = x (13 x + 6) - 2 (13 x + 6):

x (13 x + 6) - 2 (13 x + 6)

Factor 13 x + 6 from x (13 x + 6) - 2 (13 x + 6):

Answer: (13 x + 6) (x - 2)
