Question

Please help

Point A is one vertex of triangle ABC. Point B is the
x-intercept of 6x - 4y = -12 and point C is the y-intercept.
What are points B and C? Sketch the triangle in the
coordinate plane.
Point B is _ and point c is_

Answer 1

Answer: Point B is (-2,0) and Point C is (0,3)

Explanation:

We know x-intercept is when y=0 and y-intercept is when x=0

Let's first find the x-intercept by replacing y with 0.

6x-4(0)=-12

now let's solve for x

6x-0=-12

x=-2

so Point B is (-2,0)

Now let's find the y-intercept by replacing x with 0

6(0)-4y=-12

now solve for y

-4y=-12

y=3

So point C is (0,3)
