SVEN [57.7K]3 years ago
5 0

\text{Given that,}\\\\y = -2x+4\\\\\text{Plug  y= 0 to find the x-intercept,}\\\\0 = -2x +4\\\\\implies 2x = 4\\\\\implies x = \dfrac 42 = 2\\\\\text{So the x - intercept is (2,0)}  \\ \\\text{Plug x =0 to find the y-intercept.}\\\\y = -2(0) +4 = 0 +4 = 4\\\\\text{So the y - intercept is (0,4)}  \\

The length and width of a rectangle are 7 cm and (x-8) cm respectively. Find the value of x if the area with of the rectangle is
Tcecarenko [31]

to find the area of a rectangle is LxW=A

plug in the given numbers you have

L = 7

W = x-8

A = 42

7 * x-8 = 42

7x-56= 42

solve for X

Graph the system. Tell whether the system has one solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions. y = –2x + 1 y = –2x – 3
Alchen [17]
Let's try the actual solution of the system

<span>y = –2x + 1
y = –2x – 3

Note that the slopes of the graphs of these two lines are the same:  -2.

That means that the lines are parallel to one another.

Only the y-intercepts (1 and -3) are different.

Since the 2 lines never intersect, the system has no solution.

Consider the following.
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

The slope is -5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of a line given two points, we use the formula

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

  = (-1-4)/(4--2)

  =-5/(4+2)

  =-5/6

What is the slope of the line that contains the points in the table?
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The boxes with whole numbers in them written as coordinates:

(-4, -11)

(8, -8)

we know gradient is rise over run, or (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

gradient = (-8 - -11) / (8 - -4)

gradient = 3 / 12

gradient = ¼
