Find the x- and y- intercepts of the following equation.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ivanshal [37]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The x-intercept is (4,0)

The y-intercept is (0,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose you have a function f:

f = f(x,y) = 0

The x-intercept is the value of x when y = 0.

The x-intercept is the value of y when x = 0.

Solution

We have:

f(x,y) = -3x + 4y = -12

-3x + 4y + 12 = 0

x-intercept

The x-intercept is the value of x when y = 0. So:

-3x + 4(0) + 12 = 0

-3x + 12 = 0*(-1)

3x - 12 = 0

3x = 12

x = \frac{12}{3}

x = 4

The x-intercept is (4,0)

y-intercept

The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0. So:

-3(0) + 4y + 12 = 0

4y + 12 = 0

4y = -12

y = \frac{-12}{4}

y = -3

The y-intercept is (0,-3)
