You overhear your friend explaining how to find intercepts to a
classmate. Your friend says, "When you want to find the x-intercept, just substitute 0 for x
and continue to solve the equation."
Is your friend's explanation correct?

Answers

Answer 1

The friend's explanation is not correct.

They are mixing up x and y intercepts.

To find the y intercept, plug in x = 0 to find y.

To find the x intercept, plug in y = 0 and solve for x.

An algebraic expression is what?

An expression that has been created utilizing integers, constants, variables, and algebraic operations is known as an algebraic expression.

For instance, [tex]x^{2} + 2x + 2[/tex]

2x + 3

etc

The answer to the query is

John has the same amount of more money over Torrie as he has under Sonia.

Let's suppose it is $x since John has the same amount of money more than Torrie as he has less than Sonia.

Case 1

Actual amount that John has is $430 plus $x.

Case 2

Actual amount that John has is $760 less $x.

⇒ $430 + $x = $760 - $x

⇒ $2x = $330

⇒ $x = $165

John currently possesses $595 ($760 - $x) or ($430 + $x) in his possession.

John therefore has $595 in his bank account.

The amount of money that john has is $595

Answers

If  Tia rounds a number, x, to 3 sf and the result is 7.68. the error interval for x in the form a ≤ x < b is 7.685  ≤ x ≤ 7.684

What is error interval?

The accuracy thresholds that apply when a number has been rounded or truncated are known as error intervals. In other words, they represent the range of values that a number might have taken had it not been rounded off or truncated.

To do this, we consider the smallest and largest numbers that could be rounded or truncated to a value while maintaining a certain level of accuracy.

We know that if this digit is smaller than 5, then we round down.

Then the largest number that can be rounded down to 7.68 is:

7.684

Now we want to find the smallest number that can be rounded up to 7.68

We know that if the next digit is 5 or bigger, then we round up.

Then the number 7.685 is rounded up to 7.68

Then the error interval is:

7.685  ≤ x ≤ 7.684

The accurate scale drawing shows a car and a lamp post.
The car has a real width of 1.5 metres.
Find an estimate for the real height, in metres of the lamp post.

Answers

An estimate of the real height of the lamp post is 9m.

What is the estimate of the real height?

The first step is to determine the scale of the drawing. The scale can be determined by dividing the height of the lamp post by the height of the car. The height of the lamp post when measured with a ruler is 10.8 cm and the height of the car is 1.8cm

Scale = length of the lamp post / height of the car

10.8 / 1.8 = 6

Now, multiply the scale by the width of the car.

The real height of the lamp post = 6 x 1.5 = 9m

(f∘g)(12) = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Pre-Solving

We are given the functions f(x)=4x+8 and [tex]g(x)=\sqrt{x+4}[/tex]. We want to find (f∘g)(12).

(f∘g)(12) means that we first find the value of g(12), and then plug that value into f(x).

Solving

First, we find g(12). To do this, substitute x as 12.

[tex]g(12) = \sqrt{12 + 4}[/tex]

Add 12 and 4 together under the radical.

[tex]g(12) = \sqrt{16}[/tex]

Take the square root of 16.

g(12) = 4

Now, substitute 4 as x in f(x) = 4x + 8.

f(4) = 4(4) + 8

Multiply.

f(4) = 16 + 8

Add 16 and 8 together.

f(4) = 24

f(4) has the same value as (f∘g)(12), since 4 is the value of (g)(12), and then the value of g(12) was plugged in as x in f(x).

Therefore, (f∘g)(12) is 24.

Using given area and base length of a rectangle we got that the height of the given rectangle is 6.5 inches.

What is the area of a rectangle?

Rectangle is closed geometric figure that has four perpendicular sides with opposite sides equal.

The formula for the area of the rectangle :

Area of the rectangle = Length × Breadth

Given that the area of a rectangle is 45.5 square inches.

The base of the rectangle is given 7 inches

To find : Height of the rectangle

Let the base length is the length of the rectangle and height is the Breadth of the rectangle.

Then, Area of the rectangle = Length × Breadth

⇒ 45.5 = 7 × Height

⇒ 45.5 /7 = Height

⇒ 6.5 = Height  of the rectangle

Therefore, the height of the rectangle is 6.5 inches.

Answers

The value of y in the equation is 12.

What are internal angles of a triangle?
According to the alternate angle theorem, when a transversal cuts two parallel lines, the resulting alternate interior angles or alternate exterior angles are congruent.

BD falls on CE, thus angles dividing BD on CE will sum up to 180°.
Given ∠BDC = 4x - 5 and ∠BDE = 10y - 3
Thus, ∠BDC + ∠BDE = 180° ⇒ (4x - 5) + (10y - 3) = 180° - (i)
Therefore, rearranging (i), we get 4x + 10y = 188° -- (A)
Again, since alternate angles are equal, thus ∠BDC = ∠AEC
Thus, 4x - 5 = 97 - 2x ⇒ 6x = 102 ⇒ x = 102/6 = 17 --(ii)
From (A) and (ii), we get, 4(17) + 10y = 188 ⇒ 10y = 120 ⇒ y = 12
Therefore the value of y is 12.

Answers

This equation represents the approximate height, h, in meters, of the ball above the ground after it falls for t seconds.

How can one determine a function's maximum height?

The vertex, which is a maximum (or minimum) in a parabola, can be located by solving the square (yuck!) or by using the formula x = -b/2a. By re-entering the original equation with this x value as the vertex's x, we can determine the appropriate maximum height.

By multiplying "D * tan (theta)," where "tan" is the tangent of angle theta, you can get the height of the item of interest. For instance, rounding up, the height is 40 tan 50 = 47.7 meters if theta is 50 degrees and D is 40 meters.

On this note, the correct representation of the situation above involves an absolute value equation such that;

| x- 3.5 | = 0.8

Hence, to solve the equation; (x- 3.5) = 0.8 OR (x- 3.5) = -0.8.

x = 0.8 + 3.5. OR. x = -0.8 + 3.5

x = 4.3 OR x = 2.7.
