Question

The x-intercept of the line whose equation is 2x - 3y= 6 is

Answer 1

x-intercept is 3

Explanation:

2x - 3y= 6

+3y on both sides gives: 2x=3y+6

divide by 2 gives: x=3/2x+3

therefore, the x-intercept is 3.

the y-intercept is 0. You can jsut plug in 0 for y.

{ 2x-3(0)=6 2x=6 x=3 }

(3,0)
