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)

Ok so without the distributive property we would do 65*7. All u have to do is spread it out like this:-

65+65+65+65+65+65+65=455

hope i helped u:D

Find the lateral area. 10 is the height.

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

The lateral surface area of a cuboid is 180 units² .

Option (c) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

Lateral surface area of a cuboid = 2hl + 2hb

Where h is the height , l is the length and b is the breadth.

As shown in the figure.

Length = 4 units

Breadth = 5 units

Height = 10 units

Put in the formula

Lateral surface area of a box = 2 × 10 × 4 + 2 × 10 × 5

= 80 + 100

= 180 units ²

Therefore the lateral area of the cuboid is 180 units² .

Option (c) is correct.

What is the value of x?

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{x=8\sqrt2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\bold{METHOD\ 1}\\\\\text{Use the Pythagorean theorem:}\\\\leg^2+leg^2=hypotenuse^2\\\\\text{We have}\ leg=8,\ leg=8,\ hypotenuse=x.\\\text{Substitute:}\\\\x^2=8^2+8^2\\\\x^2=2(8^2)\to x=\sqrt{2(8^2)}\qquad\text{use}\ \sqrt{ab}=\sqrt{a}\cdot\sqrt{b}\\\\x=\sqrt2\cdot\sqrt{8^2}\qquad\text{use}\ \sqrt{a^2}=a\\\\x=8\sqrt2$

$\bold{METHOD\ 2}\\(look\ at\ the\ picture)\\\\\text{We have}\ a=8.\ \text{Therefore}\ a\sqrt2=8\sqrt2$

A-8 B-16 C-12 Please help guys.

Ksju [112]

Its c the answer is c because 8+4 is 12 and if you get rid of the angle and move the line so it’s straight it would be both 8 and 4
