Answer for blank # 1:  -3

Answer for blank # 2:  -2

Answer 2

The x intercept is -3, and the y intercept is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation given is 4x+6y= -12

Rewrite the equation in slope intercept form of y=mx +c where c is the y intercept

y=mx+c

6y=-4x-12

y= -4/6 x -12/6

y=-2/3x -2

c= -2

To get x intercept replace value of y in the equation with 0;

y= -2/3 x -2

0= -2/3 x -2

2= -2/3 x

2*3=-2x

6=-2x

6/-2 =x

-3 =x

x intercept is -3
