Answer 1

Answer:

(0,-3)

(8,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Putting x = 0

$3(0) - 8y = 24$

$- 8y = 24$

$y = \dfrac{ - 24}{8}$

$y = - 3$

x - intercept = (0.-3)

Putting y = 0

$3x - 8(0) = 24$

$3x = 24$

$x = \dfrac{24}{3}$

$x = 8$

y - intercept = (8,0)

Answer 2

Answer:

x-intercept is 8

y-intercept is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can put the equation into slope intercept form to find the y-intercept.

3x - 8y = 24

~Subtract 3x to both sides

-8y = 24 - 3x

~Divide -8 to everything

y = -3 + 3/8x

~Reorder

y = 3/8x - 3

In slope intercept form we know that m = slope and b = y-intercept in the formula [ y = mx + b ] so we know that the y-intercept will be -3. To find the x intercept we can substitute 0 for y and solve for x.

0 = 3/8x - 3

3 = 3/8x

x = 8

Best of Luck!
