Answer:

the y-intercept is (0,-6)

the x-intercept is (8,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for the y-intercept:

Since the equation 'y=3/4x - 6' is in the 'y=mx + c' form (where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept):

3/4 is m (which is the slope)

-6 is c (which is the y-intercept)

Solving for the x-intercept:

When the line intersects with the x-axis, the y-value is 0. Hence, the coordinate is (x,0). Substituting this into 'y=3/4x - 6':

0 = 3/4x - 6

3/4x - 6 + 6 = 6

3/4x = 6

x = 4/3 * 6

= 8

Hence,

the y-intercept is (0,-6)

the x-intercept is (8,0)

3/2x-7=-11

We move all terms to the left:

3/2x-7-(-11)=0

Domain of the equation: 2x!=0

x!=0/2

x!=0

x∈R

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

3/2x+4=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator

4*2x+3=0

Wy multiply elements

8x+3=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

8x=-3

x=-3/8

2.3×10⁹=(1×10³)(2.3×10^n)

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

n = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

2.3 × $10^{9}$ = (1 × 10³)(2.3 × $10^{n}$ )

(1 × 10³)(2.3 × $10^{n}$ ) = (1)(2.3) × (10³)( $10^{n}$ ) = 2.3 × $10^{3+n}$

2.3 × $10^{3+n}$ = 2.3 × $10^{9}$ ⇒ 3 + n = 9 ⇒ n = 6
