<u>ANSWER: </u>
x − intercept is () , y − intercept is (0,8).
<u>SOLUTION: </u>
Given, linear equation is y = 3x – 8 --eqn (1)
We need to find x – intercept and y – intercept i.e. where the line meets x – axis and y – axis
Now, let us find x – intercept. So put y = 0 in eqn (1)
0 = 3x – 8
3x = 8
x =
So, point where given line meets x – axis is ( ,0)
Now, let us find y – intercept. So put x = 0 in (1)
y = 3(0) – 8
y = 8
So, point where given line meets y – axis is (0,8).
Hence, x − intercept is ( ,0) , y − intercept is (0,8).
