Question

What is the X and Y intercept of 8(4+x)-3=12(x+y)+5

Answer 1

Lets get this into y-intercept form first, which is y =mx+b:

8(4+x)-3 = 12(x+y)+5

32+8x-3 = 12x+12y+5

-4x+24 = 12y

-1/3x+2 = y or y= -1/3x + 2

X intercept: 
0 = -1/3x + 2
-2= -1/3x
6 = x

X intercept is (6,0)

Y intercept:
y = -1/3(0) + 2
y= 2

Y intercept is (0,2)
