Question

What is the x-intercept of the line with this equation -4x + y = 36. Enter your answer in the box. ( , 0)

Answer 1

x intercept = -9

Explanation:

Given equation of line is

-4x +y =36

`\Leftrightarrow (-4x)/(36) +(y)/(36)=1`

`\Leftrightarrow (x)/(-9) +(y)/(36)=1`

This equation is in the slope intercept form i.e in the form

`(x)/(a) +(y)/(b) =1`

Where x intercept = -9
