Look at the graph picture I attached
c is the intercept, which is why the graph crosses the y-axis at +3
to find where it crosses the x-axis, we make y = 0
Add the possible answers so we know all options
Answer:
x = 8 and y = - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a vertical line parallel to the y- axis is
x = c
where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through
The line passes through (8, - 1 ) with x- coordinate 8, then
x = 8 ← equation of vertical line
The equation of a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis is
y = c
where c is the value of the y- coordinates the line passes through
The line passes through (8, - 1 ) with y- coordinate - 1, then
y = - 1 ← equation of horizontal line
X=3 and y=-5/2. Here is why, when we do 7x+5x that gives us 12x. -2y+2y=0 and then we have 16 plus 20 which gives us 36. Now we gotta isolate x which right now we have 12x=36. Therefore divide by 12 to get x alone, which 36 divided by 12 is equal to 3. X=3. Plug it back into the equation, 7(3)=21 plus 2y=16. Subtract 21 from both sides 16-21 is equal to -5. Then 2y=-5 divide by 2 on both sides you will have -5/2=y or y=-5/2. Hope this helps!
It will be the second option i believe
