The equation that represents the canned goods order is 24x + 64y = 384.

x = number of minutes for fruit cans

y = number of minutes for vegetable cans

Explain how to calculate the x- and y-intercepts.

Explanation:

let me explain in easy way

24x+64y=384 take x=0

24×0+64y=384

0+64y=384

64y=384

y=384 divided by 64

y=6

we got the y intercept

now lets do for x

24x+64y=384 take y=0

24x+64×0=384

24x+0=384

24x+0=384

24x=384

x=384 divided by 24

x=16 we got x intercept also

hope this helps

Answer:

Sample Answer: Substitute 0 for the x-value in the equation and solve for y. The result is y = 6, so the y-intercept is at (0, 6). Next, substitute 0 for the y-value in the equation and solve for x. The result is x = 16, so the x-intercept is at (16, 0).
