5.26 is equivalent to 526/1000, which is the ratio of two integers. 526/1000 can, in turn, be reduced to 263/500, which is the same (ratio). Thus, 5.26 is rational.
Remember that the y-intercept is where the function has a value of
and the x-intercept is where the function has a value of
. Thus, to find the x-intercept and y-intercept, we can substitute these values into the equation and solve for the other variable.
<u>x-intercept</u>
Since the x-intecept has a y-value of 0, we can substitute this into the function and solve for
.



The x-value of the x-intercept is
and the y-value is 0, meaning that the x-intercept has coordinates
.
<u>y-intercept</u>
Since the y-intercept has a x-value of 0, we can substitute this into the equation and solve for
:


The y-value of the y-intercept is -3, meaning that the y-intercept of the function is
.
Answer:
y = 541
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean is calculated as
mean = 
Mean of set A =
=
= 266
ratio between means = 7 : 12, then
mean of set B =
× 266 = 456 , thus
= 456 ( multiply both sides by 5 )
1739 + y = 2280 ( subtract 1739 from both sides )
y = 541
