A line with slope 3 intersects a line with slope 5 at the point (10, 15). What is the distance between the I-intercepts of these two lines?​

The distance between the intercepts of both lines is 2 units

The equation of a line in slope intercept form is:

Where:

slope

y intercept

For the first line, we have:

---- the slope

So, the equation of the first line is:

For the second line, we have:

--- the slope

So, the equation of the second line is:

Both lines intersect at (10,15) means that (10,15) is a common solution to the equation of both lines

i.e.

Substitute these values in the first equation and solve for b

So, the equation of the first line is

Repeat the same process for the second line

So, the equation of the second line is

The x intercept is when

So, we substitute 0 for y and solve for x in the equations of both lines

For line 1

---- Collect like terms

--- Divide both sides by 3

The x intercept of line 1 is 5

For line 2

--- Collect like terms

-- Divide both sides by 5

The x intercept of line 2 is 7

The distance (d) between both is the difference in the intercepts:

this is a very good question

i got a hair cut today from my mom not to flex just to flex kim jon un is one rad fellow i'd say you'd need to take the hairline in kinda like a box shape like someone rammed a lego brick into your head. from there you really need to take the top up keeping with that boxy aesthetic, finally coat the whole thing with gel if your country economics are failing or whatever you can just coat it with the starving children's food rations. about 5 orphans per strand is a good ratio. good luck with the fresh cut my dude
