Answer: The x-intercept is (-27,0)

The y intercept is (0,18)

Explanation:

For the x- intercept, Substitute 0 for y and solve for x

-2x + 3(0) = 54

-2x + 0 = 54

x = 54/-2

x = -27

For the y -intercept, Substitute 0 for x and solve for y

-2(0) + 3y = 54

0 + 3y = 54

y = 54/3

y = 18

-2x + 3y = 54 What are the x and y intercepts-example-1
