Question

Find x and y intercepts. Write answers in (x,y) format. Round answers to 2 decimal places. (I already have x intercept, I only need y)

√7y+2.5=0.9x

Answer 1

Answer: the y-intercept is (0, 0.89).

Explanation:

To find the y-intercept, we set x to 0 and solve for y.

Given the equation:

√7y + 2.5 = 0.9x

When x = 0:

√7y + 2.5 = 0

To solve for y, subtract 2.5 from both sides:

√7y = -2.5

Now, square both sides to get rid of the square root:

7y = 6.25

Finally, divide both sides by 7:

y = 0.8929

Rounding to two decimal places, y is approximately 0.89.

So, the y-intercept is (0, 0.89).
