What is the y-intercept of the line?

x 16 24 32
y 44 64 84

The y-intercept of the line is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

You could try to find the slope of the line and then find the intercept with y axis by sloving b = y - ax

But here it seems easy enough once you see that the x values in the table increase by a factor of 8 and the y values in the table increase by a factor of 20.

(By the way, this is enough to give you the slope, because it is 8/20 ). But why bother?

Just extrapolate the table to the left, and you will find the y value where x = 0

x 0 8 16 24 32

y 2 22 44 64 84

So the y-intercept of the line is 2.

Extra:

The full equation of the line is:

y = 8/20x + 2

d) by the cross product property, ab^2 = bc multiplied by ad

step-by-step explanation:

we are given

in the given triangle abc

angle a is 90° and segment ad is perpendicular to segment bc

we can see that

triangle(abc) and triangle(abd) are similar because they have common side and same angle (90 degree)

so, triangles(abc) and abd are similar

since, they are similar

so, the ratio of their sides must be equal

we get

now, we can cross multiply

and we get

so, this could be step to prove it
