The x-intercept is when the value of the y-coordinate is 0.

$x - 0 = 12\\ x = 12$

Thus the x-intercept is at (12,0).

The y-intercept is when the value of the x-coordinate is 0

$0-y=12\\y = -12$

Thus the y-intercept is at (0,-12)

What is a solution to the equation 3 / m + 3 - M / 3 - M equals m^2 + 9 / m^2-9?

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer: Last option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:

$\frac{3}{m+3}-\frac{m}{3-m}=\frac{m^2+9}{m^2-9}$

Follow these steps to solve it:

- Subtract the fractions on the left side of the equation:

$\frac{3(3-m)-m(m+3)}{(m+3)(3-m)}=\frac{m^2+9}{m^2-9}\\\\\frac{9-3m-m^2-3m}{(m+3)(3-m)}=\frac{m^2+9}{m^2-9}\\\\\frac{-m^2-6m+9}{(m+3)(3-m)}=\frac{m^2+9}{m^2-9}$

- Using the Difference of squares formula ( $a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)$ ) we can simplify the denominator of the right side of the equation:

$\frac{-m^2-6m+9}{(m+3)(3-m)}=\frac{m^2+9}{(m+3)(m-3)}$

- Multiply both sides of the equation by $(m+3)(3-m)$ and simplify:

$\frac{(-m^2-6m+9)(m+3)(3-m)}{(m+3)(3-m)}=\frac{(m^2+9)(m+3)(3-m)}{(m+3)(m-3)}\\\\-m^2-6m+9=\frac{(m^2+9)(3-m)}{(m-3)}$

- Multiply both sides by $m-3$ :

$(-m^2-6m+9)(m-3)=\frac{(m^2+9)(3-m)(m-3)}{(m-3)}\\\\(-m^2-6m+9)(m-3)=(m^2+9)(3-m)$

- Apply Distributive property and simplify:

$(-m^2-6m+9)(m-3)=(m^2+9)(3-m)\\\\-m^3-6m^2+9m+3m^2+18m-27=3m^2+27-m^3-9m\\\\-m^3-3m^2+27m-27+m^3-3m^2+9m-27=0\\\\-6m^2+36m-54=0$

- Divide both sides of the equation by -6:

$\frac{-6m^2+36m-54}{-6}=\frac{0}{-6}\\\\m^2-6m+9=0$

- Factor the equation and solve for "m":

$(m-3)^2=0\\\\m=3$

In order to verify it, you must substitute $m=3$ into the equation and solve it:

$\frac{3}{3+3}-\frac{3}{3-3}=\frac{3^2+9}{3^2-9}\\\\\frac{3}{6}-\frac{3}{0}=\frac{18}{0}$

Write an equation of the line that passes through the points (2, -1) and (2, 5). Show all work

Westkost [7]

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 coordinate points have the same x- coordinate of 2

This indicates that the line passing through them is vertical with equation

x = c

Where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through, thus

x = 2 ← equation of line

Identify the zeros of the following function. f(h)=h(h-2)(2h-1)

Rina8888 [55]

{0, 2, 1/2}

f(h) = 0 when any set of parenthesis equals zero

1. h = 0

2. h - 2 = 0
add 2
h = 2

3. 2h - 1 = 0
Add 1
2h = 1
divide by 2
h = 1/2

Find the height of a cuboid whose volume is 540cu.cm and base area is 90sq.cm

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Vcuboid = lwh

⇒ h = Vcuboid ÷ lw

∴ h = 540 cm³ ÷ 90 cm²

⇒ h = 6 cm
