Answer:

The x-intercept is (-2 1/7, 0).

The y-intercept is (0, -3).

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y-intercept, substitute x with zero.

To find the x-intercept, substitute y with zero.

Finding the y-intercept by substituting x with zero:

7*0 + 5y = -15

5y = -15

y = -3

The y-intercept is (0, -3).

Finding the x-intercept by substituting y with zero:

7x + 5*0 = -15

7x = -15

x = -15/7

x = -2 1/7

The x-intercept is (-2 1/7, 0).

anastassius [24]

Answer= .2 probability

Explanation: Since there is a total of 10 marbles, and 2 are red, you would divide the red marbles (2) out of the total marbles (10) which would get u .2. Since it’s asking for probability, we would keep .2 a decimal.

The base of a triangle is nine centimeters longer than the perpendicular height. If the area of the triangle is 180 square centi

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

The base is 24 cm long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations

Let's call

b= base of the triangle

h=height of the triangle

The base is 9 cm longer than the height, thus:

b = h + 9

The area of the triangle is:

$\displaystyle A=\frac{bh}{2}$

$\displaystyle A=\frac{(h+9)h}{2}$

And its value is 180:

$\displaystyle \frac{(h+9)h}{2}=180$

Multiplying by 2:

$(h+9)h=360$

Operating:

$h^2+9h-360=0$

Factoring:

$(h-15)(h+24)=0$

The only valid positive solution is:

h = 15 cm

And b = h + 9 = 24

b = 24 cm

The base is 24 cm long.

Which expression does NOT simplify to 1?

koban [17]

fg^3 / g^3f = 1

f^4 / f*f*f*f = f^4 / f^4 = 1

f^2g^3 / f^3g^2 = g/f

f*f/f^2 = f^2 / f^2 = 1

Answer:

f^2g^3 / f^3g^2
