Determine the intercepts of the line. -4x + 7 = 2y - 3

Mathematics

x- intercept = 5/2

y - intercept = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

the intercepts of a line are found by plugging in x=0 and y = 0

For x-intercept, we put y = 0

and

For- y-intercept we put  =0

Given equation is:

-4x + 7 = 2y - 3\\Putting\ y = 0\\-4x + 7 = 2(0) - 3\\-4x+7 = -3\\-4x = -3-7\\-4x = -10

Dividing both sides by -4

\frac{-4x}{-4} = \frac{-10}{-4}\\ = \frac{5}{2}

Putting x = 0

-4x + 7 = 2y - 3\\-4(0)+7 = 2y -3\\7 = 2y-3\\7+3 = 2y\\2y = 10

Dividing both sides by 2

\frac{2y}{2} = \frac{10}{2}\\y = 5

So,

x- intercept = 5/2

y - intercept = 5

A sailor is looking at a kite. If he is looking at the kite at an angle of elevation of 36and the distance from the boat to the
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Height of the kite from the ground is 29.2 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

For better explanation of the solution, see the figure attached :

The angle formed by the height of kite to that of the surface of the ground is right angle.

⇒ m∠ABC = 90°

Let angle of elevation be θ

Now, to find height of the kite : find length of AB

In right angled triangle ABC , using tan rule, we have\tan\theta=\frac{Perpendicular}{Base}\\\\\tan36^{\circ}=\frac{AB}{BC}\\\\\implies \tan36^{\circ}=\frac{AB}{40}\\\\\implies AB=0.73\times 40\\\\\bf\implies AB=29.2\thinspace{ feet}

Hence, Height of the kite from the ground is 29.2 feet.

Sue scored a total of 35 points in two games.she scored 6 times as many points in the second game than in the first.how many mor
kirill115 [55]
Okay,
Both games are: 35
First game: ?
Second game: 6 more than the first.
So,
first we subtract 6 from 35.
35 - 6 = 29
Divide by 2.
49 divided by 2 = 14.5
Add the 6 point= 14.5 + 6 = 20.5
To make sure add.
First game: 14.5
Second game:20.5
14.5 + 20.5 = 35

21. Given directed line segment WV , find the coordinates of R
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

R\left(\frac {4x_1+3x_2}{7} , \frac {4y_1+3y_2}{7}\right)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the coordinate of the points W, V and R are (x_1,y_1), (x_2,y_2), and (x_s,y_s)respectively.

The coordinate of the section point, (x_s,y_s), which divides the line joining the two points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) in the ration m:n is

x_s=\frac {nx_1+mx_2}{m+n} and

y_s=\frac {ny_1+my_2}{m+n}.

The given ration is, m:n=3:4

R(x_s,y_s)=R\left(\frac {nx_1+mx_2}{m+n} , \frac {ny_1+my_2}{m+n}\right)

=R\left(\frac {4x_1+3x_2}{7} , \frac {4y_1+3y_2}{7}\right).

The exact point can be determined by putting the value of the exact coordinate in the above-obtained formula.

You and a friend each randomly draw a card from a standard deck. What is the probability that at least one of you is holding a f
Andreyy89

Answer:

0.24

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cards = 52

Face cards = heart {K,Q,J} , Spade {K,Q,J} , Club {K,Q,J} , Diamond{K,Q,J} = 12

Now we are given that You and a friend each randomly draw a card from a standard deck.

Probability that no one getting face card:

Favorable events = total cards - face cards = 52 -12= 40

Total cards = 52

So, probability that no one is getting face card = \frac{40}{52} =0.76

Now we are supposed to find the probability that at least one of you is holding a face card

So, probability = 1 - probability that no one is getting face card

                        =1 - 0.76

                        = 0.24

So, probability that at least one of you is holding a face card is 0.24
