A line has a slope of 1/2 and a y intercept of -2

what is the the x intercept of the line?

x-intercept = (4,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = 1/2

y-intercept = -2

x-intercept =?

Step 1 ; Use the given information to derive the equation of the line.

Substitute values into ; y=mx+b

Where m = slope

b = y-intercept

Equation =

Step 2 ; Calculate the x-intercept

Arrange the equation in standard form ; Ax +By  = C

Let y = 0

Cross Multiply

So ; (4,-2)

555.99.

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
