What is the x-intercept of the equation y = 2/3x + 12? Please explain each step for better understanding, thank you:)

(-18, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x intercept has a y value of 0. So, to find the x intercept, plug in 0 as y into the equation, and solve for x:

y = 2/3x + 12

0 = 2/3x + 12

-12 = 2/3x

-18 = x

So, the x intercept is (-18, 0)

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

ou would have 12 of each
