x-intercept = 4, y-intercept = - 3

to find the intercepts, that is where the graph crosses the axes

let x = 0, in the equation for y- intercept

let y = 0, in the equation for x- intercept

x = 0 : - 4y = 12 ⇒ y = - 3 ⇒ (0, - 3) ← y - intercept

y = 0 : 3x = 12 ⇒ x = 4 ⇒ (4, 0 ) ← x- intercept

Hey there...

So this is a tough question.....

<u><em>Let's start with the x first, then we will go to y.</em></u>

So, here is the x.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>: To find the x intercept, make the y = (0). Since we know that x needs 0 for the y coordinate.

3x-4(0)=12

<u><em>x=4.</em></u>

So the intercept for<em><u> x = 4.</u></em>

Now we have to do the y.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>: To find the y, make x = (0), since know that y needs 0 in the front of the number.

3(0)-4y=12

<u><em>y=-3</em></u>

So the<u><em> y = -3.</em></u>


Hope this helps.....

Why is it important to solve an equation for a specific variable?
Svetllana [295]
It all depends on the importance of the variable its self. Its important to solve it so you know what the variable is and its important to solve one at a time because its impossible to solve a variable completely if you have two of them

What is T in -5t-2(5t+10)=100​
Alina [70]

Answer:

t=-8

Step-by-step explanation:

-5t-2(5t+10t)=100

-2 x 5t=-10t

-2 x 10 = -20

-5t-10t-20=100

combine terms and add 20

-15t=120

divide by -15

t=-8
