Answer:
C. 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: option C is the correct answer
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept of the function is the point on the y or vertical axis at which the straight line cuts through it. The value on the y axis is read off as the y-intercept .
The equation of a straight line is modelled using the slope - intercept equation of
y = mx + c
Where m is the slope( change in value of y/ change in value of x.
c = the y-intercept
Looking at the function given,
f(x)=4 – 5x? Where f(x) is the same as y in our slope intercept equation.
Rearranging the function, it becomes
f(x)= – 5x +4
The intercept is 4
Option C is the correct answer.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
√x^72 = √(x^36)^2 = x^36
The correct answer is y=6x^(2)-1
Multiple 'm' in y=mx+b By 8
8(3/4)= 24/4= 6
Answer:
x = 16
Explanations:
Since △ACD ~ △ABE, it means that:
CD/AD = BE/AE..........(*)
CD = 3x + 8
AD = AE + ED
AD = (x - 1) + 27
AD = x + 26
BE = 20
AE = x - 1
Substituting CD, AD, BE, and AE into equation (*)
(3x+8)/(x+26) = 20/x-1
Cross multiply:
(3x+8)(x-1) = 20(x+26)
3x² - 3x + 8x - 8= 20x + 520
3x²- 15x - 528 = 0
Divide through by 3
x² - 5x - 176 = 0
Solving the quadratic equation above for the values of x
x² - 16x + 11x - 176 = 0
x(x - 16) + 11 (x - 16) = 0
(x - 16)(x + 11) = 0
If x - 16 = 0
x = 16
If x + 11 = 0
x = -11
x cannot be -11 because x = -11 will make side CD and AE to be negative, and the sides of a triangle cannot be negative.
Therefore, x = 16
