Find the x-intercept and y-intercept for 8x-9y=15

Kipish [7]11 months ago

The  x and y-intercept of the equation [8x - 9y = 15] are ( 15/8, 0 ) and ( 0, -5/3 ) respectively.

<h3>What are the x and y-intercept?</h3>

Given the equation;

8x - 9y = 15

First, we find the x-intercepts by simply substituting 0 for y and solve for x.

8x - 9y = 15

8x - 9(0) = 15

8x = 15

Divide both sides by 8

8x/8 = 15/8

x = 15/8

Next, we find the y-intercept by substituting 0 for x and solve for y.

8x - 9y = 15

8(0) - 9y = 15

- 9y = 15

Divide both sides by -9

- 9y/(-9) = 15/(-9)

y = -15/9

y = -5/3

We list the intercepts;

x-intercept: ( 15/8, 0 )

y-intercept: ( 0, -5/3 )

Therefore, the  x and y-intercept of the equation [8x - 9y = 15] are ( 15/8, 0 ) and ( 0, -5/3 ) respectively.

Monica [59]
Micah is 5 inches shorter than twice the height of Jasmine

Micah = 5 inches shorter than 2 x Jasmine

Micah = 2 x Jasmine - 5    <em>(jasmine is 32 inches tall. Replace jasmine with 32)
</em>
Micah = 2 x 32 - 5

Micah = 64 - 5

Micah = 59

Micah is 59 inches tall
