Answer:

The x-intercept is 50 and it means to earn $1 using ONLY aluminum cans, you would have to collect 50 of them.

The y-intercept is 20 and it means to earn $1 using ONLY glass bottles, you would have to collect 20 of them.


Step-by-step explanation:

To find x intercept, we set y = 0.

To find y intercept, we set x = 0.


<u>x-intercept:</u>

2x+5y=100\\2x+5(0)=100\\2x=100\\x=50

The x-intercept is 50 and it means to earn $1 using ONLY aluminum cans, you would have to collect 50 of them.


<u>y-intercept:</u>

2x+5y=100\\2(0)+5y=100\\5y=100\\y=20

The y-intercept is 20 and it means to earn $1 using ONLY glass bottles, you would have to collect 20 of them.

What is the solution of -8/2y-8=5/y+4-7y+8/y^2-16 <br> y = –4 <br> y = –2 <br> y = 4 <br> y = 6
maria [59]
(-8)/(2y-8)=(5/(y+4))-7y+(8/(y^2-16))
(-4)/(y-4)=(5/(y+4))-7y+(8/(y+4)(y-4))
((-4)(y+4))/((y+4)(y-4))=((5(y-4))/(y+4)(y-4))-(7y(y+4)(y-4))/(y+4)(y-4))+(8/(y+4)(y-4))
(-4(y+4))=(5(y-4))-(7y(y+4)(y-4))+8
-4y-16=5y-20-(7y(y^2-16))+8
-4y-16=5y-20-7y^3+112y+8
-4y-16=117y-7y^3-12
-4=(121-7y^2)(y)
None of these choices would be equal to -4
