Question

What is the x intercept of the line represented by the equation below 3x+6y=30​

Answer 1

hmmm? well I guess I can solve for x in relation to y and vice versa

but to actually solve for x and y you will need another equation of x and y

3x=30+6y

x=10+2y=2y+10

-6y=30-3x

-2y=10-x

2y=-10+x=x-10

y=(1/2)x-5

well, y=(1/2)x-5 is a line with slope 1/2 and y-intercept (0,b) of

Answer 2

(10,0)

Explanation:

3x+6y=30

3x+6(0)=30

3x=30

x=10
