Answer:

• The system of lines 6x+By=24 have x-intercepts of (4,0).

,

• The system of lines Ax-7y=21 have x-intercepts of (21/A,0).

Step-by-step explanation:

Part B

Given the equation:


6x+By=24

Comparing with the general form of a straight line: Ax+By=C

The x-intercept is found using the formula below:


\begin{gathered} x-\text{intercept}=((C)/(A),0) \\ =((26)/(6),0) \\ =(4,0) \end{gathered}

The system of lines 6x+By=24 have x-intercepts of (4,0).

Part C

Given the equation:


Ax-7y=21

Comparing with the general form of a straight line: Ax+By=C

The x-intercept is found using the formula below:


\begin{gathered} x-\text{intercept}=((C)/(A),0) \\ =((21)/(A),0) \end{gathered}

The system of lines Ax-7y=21 have x-intercepts of (21/A,0).
