To find the x-intercept, you need to set y equal to zero(think about this on a graph!)
This will become:
x + 2(0) = 8
If we remove the unnecessary zero:
x = 8
That's the x intercept, which can be expressed as the point (8,0).

To find the y-intercept, you need to set x equal to zero(again, think about that on a graph!)
This becomes:
0 + 2y = 8
Remove the unnecessary 0:
2y = 8
Divide both sides by 2:
y = 4
There ya go! Or, in point form: (0, 4)

Hope this helped! :)

Distance between parallel lines y=3x+10 and y=3x-20

Alecsey [184]

1. Take an arbitrary point that lies on the first line y=3x+10. Let x=0, then y=10 and point has coordinates (0,10).

2. Use formula $d=\dfrac{|Ax_0+By_0+C|}{\sqrt{A^2+B^2}}$ to find the distance from point $(x_0,y_0)$ to the line Ax+By+C=0.

The second line has equation y=3x-20, that is 3x-y-20=0. By the previous formula the distance from the point (0,10) to the line 3x-y-20=0 is:

$d=\dfrac{|3\cdot 0-10-20|}{\sqrt{3^2+(-1)^2}}=\dfrac{30}{\sqrt{10}}=3\sqrt{10}$ .

3. Since lines y=3x+10 and y=3x-20 are parallel, then the distance between these lines are the same as the distance from an arbitrary point from the first line to the second line.

Answer: $d=3\sqrt{10}$ .
