The intercept can be found when all other variables are equated to zero.
x-intercept when y = 0 and z = 0: 8x + 6*0 + 3*0 = 24 gives x = 3
y-intercept when x = 0 and z = 0: 8*0 + 6y + 3*0 = 24 gives y = 4
z-intercept when x = 0 and y = 0: 8*0 + 6*0 + 3z = 24 gives z = 8

The intercepts are (3, 0, 0), (0, 4, 0), and (0, 0, 8).

A farmer has enough food to feed 20 animals in his cattle for 6 days. How long would the food last if there were 10 more animals

Answer:

A farmer has enough food to feed 20 animals in his cattle for 6 days. How long would the food last if there were 10 more animals in his cattle? Here the number of animals and the number of days are in inverse proportion. Hence the food will last 4 days.
