X intercept is (1,0)
y intercept is (0,-4)
Answer:
x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Take out common factor
The factor inside the parenthesis cannot be factored
Since there is a common factor that we pulled out of the original equation,
set that x equal to zero and solve
: Therefore x = 0
-------------------------------------------
Define x:
-------------------------------------------
Let the shorter piece be x.
Shorter piece = x
Longer piece = 6x
-------------------------------------------
Construct equation:
-------------------------------------------
x +6x =35
7x = 35
x =5
-------------------------------------------
Find the length:
-------------------------------------------
Shorter length = x = 5 feet
Larger length = 6x = 6(5) = 30 feet
-------------------------------------------
Answer: The shorter piece is 5 feet.
-------------------------------------------
2 divided by 1/2
2 x 2/1 = 4
3/4 x 4/1 = 12/3
12/3 = 4
