Question

Select the correct answer. Which line has a y-intercept of 2 and an x-intercept of -3? W. X. Y. Z. A. W B. X C. Y D. Z

Answer 1

Answer:

$y = -\frac{2}{3}x + 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, as the graphs or equations of the lines are not given.

However, I will give a general explanation of calculating both intercepts

A linear equation is of the form:

$y = mx + b$

Where:

$b \to$ y intercept

So, the equation

$y = -\frac{2}{3}x + 2$

has 2 as its y-intercept

Set y to 0, to calculate the x-intercept

$0 = -\frac{2}{3}x + 2$

Collect like terms

$\frac{2}{3}x = 2$

Multiply by 3/2

$x = 2 * \frac{3}{2}$

$x = 3$

So, the equation with the required criteria is:

$y = -\frac{2}{3}x + 2$
