Remember that the y-intercept is where the function has a value of x = 0 and the x-intercept is where the function has a value of y = 0. Thus, to find the x-intercept and y-intercept, we can substitute these values into the equation and solve for the other variable.


<u>x-intercept</u>

Since the x-intecept has a y-value of 0, we can substitute this into the function and solve for x.

0 = -2x - 3

  • Set up

3 = -2x

  • Add 3 to both sides

x = - \dfrac{3}{2}

  • Divide both sides by -2

The x-value of the x-intercept is -\frac{3}{2} and the y-value is 0, meaning that the x-intercept has coordinates \boxed{(-\frac{3}{2}, 0)}.


<u>y-intercept</u>

Since the y-intercept has a x-value of 0, we can substitute this into the equation and solve for y:

y = -2(0) - 3

  • Set up

y = -3

  • Multiply and simplify

The y-value of the y-intercept is -3, meaning that the y-intercept of the function is \boxed{(0, -3)}.

What is the solution of the following system <br> x-y=11<br> -x+y=-11
Elan Coil [88]
The answer is infinitely many solutions.
 
<span>x - y = 11
-x + y = -11
_____
Express the first equation in the term of x and substitute it into the second equation:
x = y + 11
</span>-x + y = -11
_______
-(y + 11) + y = -11
-y - 11 + y = -11
-y + y = 11 - 11
0 = 0

So, the system has infinitely many solutions.

What is the volume of the cone below?
MrRa [10]

ANSWER

B.

112\pi \:  {units}^{3}

EXPLANATION

The volume of a cone is calculated using the formula:

Volume =  \frac{1}{3} \pi {r}^{2}h

where r=4 units is the base radius of the cone.

and h=21 units is the vertical height of the cone.

We plug in the values to get;

Volume =  \frac{1}{3} \times  \pi \times  {4}^{2} \times 21

Volume =  112\pi \:  {units}^{3}

Please help with geometry?
kolezko [41]
<h3>Proof:</h3>

Refer to the attached figure.

There are a couple of ways you can go at this. One is to show the sums of the marked angles are the same, hence ∠B ≅ ∠D. Instead, we're going to show that ΔABD ≅ ΔCDB, hence ∠A ≅ ∠C.

1. AB║DC and BC║AD . . . . given

2. BD is a transversal to both AB║DC and BC║AD . . . . given

3. ∠CBD ≅ ∠ADB . . . . alternate interior angles where a transversal crosses parallel lines are congruent

4. ∠CDB ≅ ∠ABD . . . . alternate interior angles where a transversal crosses parallel lines are congruent

5. BD ≅ BD . . . . reflexive property of congruence

6. ΔABD ≅ ΔCDB . . . . ASA postulate

7. ∠A ≅ ∠C . . . . CPCTC

∠A and ∠C are opposite angles of parallelogram ABCD, so we have shown what you want to have shown.
