When given the equation y = 3/4x − 6 , Find the x intercept and y intercept.

Mathematics
1 answer:
STALIN [3.7K]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

the y-intercept is (0,-6)

the x-intercept is (8,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Solving for the y-intercept:</em>

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)

<em>Solving for the x-intercept:</em>

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)

2 3/8 - 4 1/2 + 3 1/8 - (1/2)
UkoKoshka [18]

let's convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions firstly.

\bf \stackrel{mixed}{2\frac{3}{8}}\implies \cfrac{2\cdot 8+3}{8}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{19}{8}}~\hfill \stackrel{mixed}{4\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{4\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{9}{2}} \\\\\\ \stackrel{mixed}{3\frac{1}{8}}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot 8+1}{8}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{25}{8}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\bf \cfrac{19}{8}-\cfrac{9}{2}+\cfrac{25}{8}-\cfrac{1}{2}\implies \stackrel{\textit{using an LCD of 8}}{\cfrac{(1)19-(4)9+(1)25-(4)1}{8}}\implies \cfrac{19-36+25-4}{8} \\\\\\ \cfrac{4}{8}\implies \cfrac{1}{2}

The average high temperature during the hottest month in Beijing, China, is 72°F. The average high temperature during the coldes
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

- September

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature in Beijing, in m months after January, is given by the following equation:

T(m) = 27\cos{((\frac{\pi}{6})(m-6))} + 45

In which m is the number of months after January.

During which month in the year would the temperature reach 55°F?

We have to find m for which: T(m) = 55. So

T(m) = 27\cos{((\frac{\pi}{6})(m-6))} + 45

55 = 27\cos{((\frac{\pi}{6})(m-6))} + 45

27\cos{((\frac{\pi}{6})(m-6))} = 10

\cos{((\frac{\pi}{6})(m-6))} = \frac{10}{27}

Now, we apply the inverse cosine, on both sides of the equation, to find the value of m.

\cos^{-1}{\cos{(\frac{\pi}{6})(m-6)}} = \cos^{-1}{\frac{10}{27}}

Now, with the help of a calculator, in radians:

\frac{\pi}{6}(m-6) = 1.19

\pi m - 6\pi = 6*1.19

\pi m = 6*1.19 + 6 \pi

m = \frac{6*1.19 + 6 \pi}{\pi}

m = 8.27

8.27 months after January, since 8.27 + 1 = 9.28, it happens during the month of September.
