Answer:
a. Substitute 0 for x and solve for y
b. Substitute 0 for y and solve for x
Step-by-step explanation:
Getting the zeros of the given equation is similar to finding the x-intercept and y-intercept of the equation
The x intercept occurs where y = 0
Substituting y = 0 into the expression and getting x we have;
9x + 2y = 18
9x +2(0)= 18
9x = 18
x = 18/9
x=2
Hence the x intercept is 2
Similarly, to get the y intercept, we will substitute x = 0 and get the value of x a shown:
When x =0.
9(0)+2y = 18
0+2y = 18
2y= 18
y = 18/2
y = 9
Hence the zeros of the equations occurs at (2, 9)
The correct options are
-Substitute 0 for x and solve for y
-Substitute 0 for y and solve for x
