Answer:

x-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercept is the point on the line that crosses the x-axis, shown in the graph in the picture.

Answer:

The intercepts of a graph are points at which the graph crosses the axes. The x-intercept is the point at which the graph crosses the x-axis. At this point, the y-coordinate is zero. The y-intercept is the point at which the graph crosses the y-axis. At this point, the x-coordinate is zero.

To determine the x-intercept, we set y equal to zero and solve for x. Similarly, to determine the y-intercept, we set x equal to zero and solve for y. For example, lets find the intercepts of the equation \displaystyle y=3x - 1y=3x−1.

To find the x-intercept, set \displaystyle y=0y=0.

We can confirm that our results make sense by observing a graph of the equation as in Figure 10. Notice that the graph crosses the axes where we predicted it would.

This is an image of a line graph on an x, y coordinate plane. The x and y-axis range from negative 4 to 4. The function y = 3x – 1 is plotted on the coordinate plane

HOW TO: GIVEN AN EQUATION, FIND THE INTERCEPTS.

Find the x-intercept by setting \displaystyle y=0y=0 and solving for \displaystyle xx.

Find the y-intercept by setting \displaystyle x=0x=0 and solving for \displaystyle yy.

EXAMPLE 4: FINDING THE INTERCEPTS OF THE GIVEN EQUATION

Find the intercepts of the equation \displaystyle y=-3x - 4y=−3x−4. Then sketch the graph using only the intercepts.

Set \displaystyle y=0y=0 to find the x-intercept.

Plot both points, and draw a line passing through them as in Figure 11.

This is an image of a line graph on an x, y coordinate plane. The x-axis ranges from negative 5 to 5. The y-axis ranges from negative 6 to 3. The line passes through the points (-4/3, 0) and (0, -4).

Amir is operating a machine that adds sand to a concrete mixture. The machine adds 1/10 ton of sand to the mixture in 4/5 minute
zavuch27 [327]

for the above question, we can first convert the fractions to decimals to make it easier to work with

<span>1/10 of sand - 0.1 ton </span>

4/5 minute - 0.8 minute

<span>Q1 - </span>

<span>ratio </span>

0.1:0.8

since the ratio is in decimals we can convert it to whole numbers by multiplying by 10

1:8

Q2. amount of sand added in 0.8 minutes - 0.1 ton

<span>       amount of sand added in 1 minute - 0.1/0.8 = 0.125 tons</span>

A box of colored crayons contains 11 distinct colors. In how many ways can 2 colors be chosen, assuming that the order of the co
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

55

Step-by-step explanation:

The first crayon is chosen out of 11,so there are 11 choices

11

The second crayon is chosen out of 10 crayons left so there are 10 choices

10

11*10 = 110

But we do not care about the order, so we divide by 2 since there are 2 places

110/2 =55

The sum of three consecutive odd numbers is 69. What is the third number in this sequence?
Papessa [141]

let the first odd number = x

the sum of three consecutive odd numbers is 69

(x) + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 69

Simplify. Combine like terms

3x + 6 = 69

Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. First, subtract 6 from both sides

3x + 6 (-6) = 69 (-6)

3x = 63

Next, divide 3 from both sides to isolate the x.

3x/3 = 63/3

x = 63/3

x = 21

To solve for the third number, plug in 21 back into x.

(x + 4)

21 + 4 = 25

The third number is 25

hope this helps
