Question

Consider the equation Ax+By=−36. If the x-intercept is (−3,0) and the y-intercept is (0,9), what are the values of A and B?

Answer 1

Answer:

A= 12

B = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

( -3,0) & (0,9) should satisfy the equation Ax + By = -36

when ( -3,0)

-3A+ 0 = -36

A = 12

when (0,9)

0 + 9B = -36

B = -4
