Question

Find the x - and y -intercepts of the graph of the linear equation 3x+6y=24 .

The x -intercept is
.

The y -intercept is
.

Answer 1

x -intercept is 8

y -intercept is 4

Explanation:

SOLUTION:

(x -intercept)

3x+6y=24

3x+6×0=24

3x+0= 24

(3x/3= 24/3) divide both sides by 3

x=8

____________

(y -intercept)

3x+6y=24

3×0+6y=24

(6y/6=24/6) divide both sides by 6

y=4
