Answer:
x=1.167 y=8
Explanation:
The y-intercept is where the graph crosses the y-axis. To find the y-intercept, we set x2=0 and then solve for y.
7x - 6y = 48
7(0) - 6y = 48
y2 = -8 x2 = 0
(x1,y1) and (x2,y2)
(6.857,0) and (0,-8)
6.857,0) and (0,-8)
The slope of the line (m) is the steepness of the line. It is the change in the y coordinate divided by the corresponding change in the x coordinate. Simply plug in the coordinates from above and solve for m to get the slope for 7x - 6y = 48
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (-8 - 0)/(0 - 6.857)
m = 1.167
