Question

What are the 'x' and 'y' intercepts of the equation 2y + 17 = 6x - 19?

Answer 1

x-intercept: (6,0)

y-intercept: (0,-18)

Explanation:

To find the x-intercept, set y=0 and solve for x.

2y=+17=6x-19

0+17=6x-19

6x=36

x=6

(6,0)

To find the y-intercept, set x=0 and solve for y.

2+17=6x-19

2y+17=0-19

2y=-36

y=-18

(0,-18)

Answer 2

x=6,0

y=0,-18
