Answer:

X-intercept: (2/3,0)

Y-intercept: (0,1)

Explanation:

To find the x-intercept, we put in 0 for y. To find the y-intercept, we put in 0 for x.

Find x-intercept

3x + 2(0) = 2

3x = 2

x = 2/3

So, the x-intercept is (2/3,0)

Find y-intercept

3(0) + 2y = 2

2y = 2

y = 1

So, the y-intercept is (0,1)
