Answer:
y intercept = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)=5•(1/6)^x
The y intercept is when x =0
Let x =0
f(0)=5•(1/6)^0
= 5* 1 = 5
The y intercept is 5
If the question is
f(x)=5•(1/6)x
although I have never seen the question written this way
The y intercept is when x =0
Let x =0
f(0)=5•(1/6)0
= 5* 0 = 0
The y intercept is 0
Answer:
(3, 4 )
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 3y = 27 → (1)
2x + y = 10 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
y = 10 - 2x → (2)
substitute y = 10 - 2x into (1)
5x + 3(10 - 2x) = 27
5x + 30 - 6x = 27
- x + 30 = 27 ( subtract 30 from both sides )
- x = - 3 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
x = 3
substitute x = 3 into (2)
y = 10 - 2(3) = 10 - 6 = 4
solution is (3, 4 )
All we have to do is divide the distance of the old sidewalk by 3.14:
65 / 3.14 ≈ 20.7006
That means that, rounded to the nearest meter, the new sidewalk is:
21 meters long!
