Answer:

Now we can plot the graph by the two intercept points (0,-3) and (6,0)

The graph is shown in the attachment.

Explanation:

We are given the equation:


6x-12y-36=0

Now x intercept can be found by plugging y equal to zero and solving the equation for x.

So plugging y=0 in the given equation, we have


6x-12(0)-36=0


6x-36=0


6x=36

x=6

So x intercept is at x=6

Similarly y intercept can be found by plugging x equal to zero and solving the equation for y.

So plugging x=0 in the given equation, we have


6(0)-12y-36=0


-12y-36=0


-12y=36

y=-3

So y intercept is at y=-3

Now we can plot the graph by the two intercept points (0,-3) and (6,0)

The graph is shown in the attachment.
