Find the distance between the x-intercept and the y-intercept of the graph of the equation 5x - 12y = 60.

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

Algebra I

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

The y-intercept is the y value when x = 0.  Another way to reword that is when the graph crosses the y-axis.

The x-intercept is the x value when y = 0.  Another way to reword that is when the graph crosses the x-axis.

Algebra II

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Equation 5x - 12y = 60

Step 2: Rewrite in slope-intercept form

Step 3: Find x and y intercept

x-intercept

y-intercept

Step 4: Write coordinates

x-int (12, 0)

y-int (0, -5)

Step 5: Find distance d

step-by-step explanation:

introduction, methodology, results, discussion

step-by-step explanation:

an observational study is one which consists of actual observation to record data and then analyse the data.

there are a number of factors that should be analyzed before starting an observational study.

the main four factors are:

i) introduction:   this should be analysed to check whether the purpose of the study is correctly established and the data recorded are appropriate for the study

methodology:   the method of collecting the data, such as whether randomly selected, and whether sample size matches with the population to be studied, whether questions asked are easy to answer by common men, etc.

results: then results such as summary of data with comments should be studied thoroughly

discussion:   the last is the discussion, this can be either by management people or persons who are all interested , etc.
