Question

Find the x- and y- intercepts if the graph of the linear equation 3x - 6y = 2​

Answer 1

x-intercept = 2/3

y-intercept = -1/3

Explanation:

Here, we want to get the x and y intercept of the given linear equation

the x-intercept is the value of x when y is 0 while the y-intercept is the value of y when x = 10

For 3x - 6y = 2

Let x = 0

-6y = 2

y = -2/6 = -1/3

Let y = 0

3x = 2

x = 2/3

X-intercept is (2/3,0)

y-intercept is (0,-1/3)
