Answer:
(2,0) - x -intercept
(0, 1.5) - y-intercept
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the points can be found by writing a ratio of vertical change to horizontal change. It can be found in the table by subtracting y values from each other and subtracting x values from each other. The y values decrease by 3 each time or -6 - -3 = -6 + 3 = -3.
The x values increase by 4.
So the rate of change is -3/4.
This means if you go backwards on the table the previous point would be (2, 0). This is the x-intercept.
To find the y-intercept, you must go further back. Going back 2 more units would make the table appear as:
x y
-2 3
0 ???
2 0
6 -3
10 -6
14 -9
Since the y values decrease by 3 each time and we went back half the usual amount, then the value would be 1.5.
Solve your equation step-by-step.
2(x−3)−17=13−3(x+2)
Simplify both sides of the equation.
2(x−3)−17=13−3(x+2)
Simplify
2x−23=−3x+7
Add 3x to both sides.
2x−23+3x=−3x+7+3x
5x−23=7
Add 23 to both sides.
5x−23+23=7+23
5x=30
Divide both sides by 5.
5x/5 = 30/5
x=6
Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
They won 14 games. If you subtract 2 ( the ties ) you are left with 22. Subtract 6 ( games more won than loss) you get 16. Then divide by two and get 8. 8 + 6 = 14.
