Find x and y intercepts 3y 2x 6 I got an x intercept of 3
Find x and y intercepts.
3y = 2x - 6
I got an x intercept of -3 and y intercept of -9- please walk me through so I can see if I am right of if not, how to get the correct answer. thank you
Solution
X-intercept is when y = 0,
given equation is
3y = 2x - 6
when y = 0,
3*0 = 2*x - 6
2*x = 6
x = 3
So x-intercept is +3
Similarly, y-intercept is when x = 0, So
3*y = 2*0 - 6
y = -6/3 = -2
y-intercept is (-9)
