Question

−2x+12y=18?

enter your answer in the box
(_,0)

Answer 1

The answer is x = -9. (-9,0)

Explanation:

first put the equation into standard slope intercept form

`y = mx + b`

`12y = 2x + 18`

The problem says the pair is (_,0). so we substitute 0 for y.

`12(0) = 2x + 18`

`0 = 2x + 18`

solve for x

`- 18 = 2x`

`x = - (18)/(2)`

`x = - 9`
