Answer:

a) (3, 0), (0, -2)

b) see below

Explanation:

The x-intercept is found by setting y=0 and solving for x:

2x = 6

x = 6/2 = 3 . . . point (3, 0), x-intercept

The y-intercept is found by setting x=0 and solving for y:

-3y = 6

y = 6/-3 = -2 . . . point (0, -2), y-intercept

__

The graph is the line through these points.
