Answer:

y = -3/4 - 6

Explanation:

3x + 4y = -24

get Y to be by itself so subtract 3x on both sides

4y=-3x-24

divide by 4 on both sides

y = -3/4x -24/4

-24/4=-6

y = -3/4 - 6

Answer:

Explanation:

x-intercept: let y = 0 and find x. Then 3x = -24, and x = -8. The x-intercept is (-8, 0).

y-intercept: Let x = 0 and find y. 4y = -24 yields y = -6. The y-intercept is (0, -6).
