Answer:

a. x-intercept = 3 , y-intercept = 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

-6x - 2y = -18

Convert to slope-intercept form:

-2y = 6x - 18

y = -3x + 9

So the y-intercept (when x = 0) is when y = 9..

Solving for x to find the x-intercept:

0 = -3x + 9

3x = 9

x = 3.

Write an equation, calling the number x:

3x=2(x+4)
