Determine the intercepts of the line. -6x+3y=-7

1 answer:

3 0

To find x-intercept substitute 0 for y and solve for x
-6x + 3(0) = -7
Simplify
-6x=-7
Divide each side by -6
-6x ÷ -6 = -7 ÷ -6
x = 7/6
X = 7/6 is your x intercept
-------------------------------------
To find y-intercept substitute 0 for x and solve for y
-6(0)+3y=-7
Simplify
3y=-7
Divide each side by 3
3y ÷ 3 = -7 ÷ 3
y = -7/3
Y = -7/3 is your y-intercept

Answer:

A square

36 square yard.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following information:

W(3,3), X(-3,3), Y(-3,-3), and Z(3,-3)

So we need to graph those vertices and connect them in order.

(please have a look at the attached photo)

From the graph, it clear that the shape of the garden is a square.

Then, we need to calculate the length of the four sides

Find the length of the side YZ.

The length of side YZ = 3 + 3 = 6 yards because point Y and Z are on the same line y = -3 so we just need to find the distance between their x coordinate

Find the length of the side WZ.

The length of side WZ = 3 + 3 = 6 yards because point W and Z are on the same line x = 3 so we just need to find the distance between their y coordinate

=> the area of the square WXYZ:

= YZ*WZ

= 6*6

= 36 square yard.
