Answer:

x-intercept: (2,0)

y-intercept: (0,6)

Explanation:

The x-intercept is when y = 0.

The y-intercept is when x = 0.

Each intercept can be solved with substitution in the standard form equation.

Given the standard form equation is

6x + 2y = 12

x-intercept:

given y = 0

6x + 2(0) = 12 →

6x = 12 →

6x / 6 = 12 / 6 →

x = 2 →

(2, 0)

y-intercept:

given x = 0

6(0) + 2y = 12 →

2y = 12 →

2y / 2 = 12 / 2 →

y = 6 →

(0, 6)
