Question

Consider the following equation.

6y=48
Find the x- and y-intercepts, if possible.

Answer 1

Answer: the only y-intercept is 8

Explanation:

One way I remembered equations when I was doing algebra with only an x or a y was HOY VUX.

H - horizontal
O = slope
Y = the variable in the line equation

V =vertical
U = undefined slope
X = the variable in the line equation

As we can see this is a horizontal line so there will be no x-intercepts.

6y = 48

y = 8

the only y-intercept is 8
