How much is y if the equation meets the x axis?

#

x can be some value, but what's the value of y?

#

@remote crater

#

Give me the coordinates of any point on the x axis

#

0,0

#

Okay, give me another

#

Incorrect, 4,2 doesnt lie on the x axis

#

It's in the first quadrant

#

,w plot (4,2)

#

2,0 good

#

0,0
2,0

#

Give me another one

#

Notice a pattern? What's the value of y each time?

#

x changes, but y is alway 0

#

So when you have an equation

#

And you need to know where it intersects the x axis

#

You can automatically set the y coordinate

#

And find x

#

What is your equation?

#

How much is y?

#

But we know it has to be on the x axis

#

So we do know y

#

What is it?

#

Correct

#

3x - 2(0) = 6

#

So your coordinates are 2,0

#

Yw

#

wait let me figure it out

#

well that's interesting

#

so you have an arc

#

of which you have an angle at the centre

#

and it says that that is double the angle you get when you move the point that is subtended to the arc

#

but that isn't true

#

you can get a bigger angle if you move the point closer to the arc and smaller if you move away from the arc

#

is there anymore details on the problem?
