Question

What are the x and y intercepts for the equation 3y=12+2x

Answer 1

Answer:

(x,y) the x intercept is (-6,0) the y intercept is (0,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

3y=12+2x

To find the x-intercept will set y=0 because, at the intercept of x, the value of y is 0

Then, y=0

3y=12+2x

3(0)=12+2x

0=12+2x

2x=-12

divide both sides by 2

x=-12/2

x=-6

Also, to get the y-intercept, let set x=0, because, at the intercept of y, x = 0

3y=12+2x

3y=12+2(0)

3y=12

Divide both sides by 3

y=12/3

y=4

So, y-intercept 4

Also, the x-intercept is -6
