For y=-5x , what is the y intercept

The y intercept is zero (0) because the slope is -5 and no other number is listed so there’s an implied +0 so the y intercept is zero

Hello!

The equation above has been written in slope-intercept form, which uses the following formua:

y = mx + b

In the formula above, “m” represents the slope of the line while “b” represents the y-intercept. With this knowledge, we can see that the given equation has a slope of (-5). You’ll notice, however, that the given equation does not have a “b” value. In this case, the fact that “b” is not included in the equation implies that this particular value is equal to zero.

Consequently, we have now come to the conclusion that the y-intercept (b) is equal to zero.

I hope this helps!

suppose that y varies jointly with x and z. Find your when x=3 and z=5 , given that y=72 when x=6 and z=4
Hitman42 [59]
Y α xz

y = kxz             y = 72, when x = 6, and z = 4

72 = k*6*4

72 = k*24

24k = 72

k = 72/24

k = 3.

<span>y = kxz    
</span>
<span>y = 3xz    </span>

Finding y, when x = 3, z = 5.

y = 3xz

y = 3*3*5

y = 45

What is the value of X and y?
qaws [65]

Answer:

Therefore, the first number in an ordered pair is a value for x, and the second number is a value for y. These numbers are called the x- and y-coordinates.Jan 6, 2020

Could the equation. For the graph of the function have degree 4?explain
aivan3 [116]

The graphed polynomial seems to have a degree of 2, so the degree can be 4 and not 5.

<h3>Could the graphed function have a degree 4?</h3>

For a polynomial of degree N, we have (N - 1) changes of curvature.

This means that a quadratic function (degree 2) has only one change (like in the graph).

Then for a cubic function (degree 3) there are two, and so on.

So. a polynomial of degree 4 should have 3 changes. Naturally, if the coefficients of the powers 4 and 3 are really small, the function will behave like a quadratic for smaller values of x, but for larger values of x the terms of higher power will affect more, while here we only see that as x grows, the arms of the graph only go upwards (we don't know what happens after).

Then we can write:

y = a*x^4 + c*x^2 + d

That is a polynomial of degree 4, but if we choose x^2 = u

y = a*u^2 + c*u + d

So it is equivalent to a quadratic polynomial.

Then the graph can represent a function of degree 4 (but not 5, as we can't perform the same trick with an odd power).

Sarah got £72 for her birthday. She spent 40% of the money on
zvonat [6]

Solution: She has £36 remaining.

To solve this is fairly simple.  First we multiple 72 by .4 to get 40%.  This gives us 28.8.  

We then subtract 28.8 by 72 to get the money she has remaining after she spends 40%.  The answer to this is 43.2

Then she spends 1/6 on makeup.  So we divide 43.2 by 6 and multiply again by 5, which gives us 36.
