Question

Find the coordinates of the points of intersection of the graphs with coordinate axes:

y=−1.5x+3

Answer 1

What is slope?

Explanation:

Answer 2

(0, 3 ) and (2, 0 )

Explanation:

To find the y- intercept let x = 0 in the equation and solve for y

y = - 1.5(0) + 3

y = 3 ← y- intercept ⇒ (0, 3 )

To find the x- intercept let y = 0 in the equation and solve for x

0 = - 1.5x + 3 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

- 3 = - 1.5x ( divide both sides by - 1.5 )

x = 2 ← x- intercept ⇒ (2, 0 )
