Question

Identify the x-intercept and y-intercept of the equation below.

Answer 1

Answer:

x intercept at (7/3 , 0)

y intercept at (0,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

9x-7y=21

we need to find x  and y intercepts

To find x intercept , plug in 0 for y

9x - 7(0) = 21

9x = 21

divide by 9 on both sides

x= 21/ 9 = 7/3

so x intercept at (7/3 , 0)

To find y intercept , plug in 0 for x

9(0) - 7(y) = 21

-7y = 21

divide by -7 on both sides

y= -3

so y intercept at (0,-3)
