Question

b) Find the intercepts made by the line 2x-3y+12=0 on the co-ordinate axes.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer will be —

x intercept (-6,0)

y intercept (0.4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Intercept Format — (x/a) + (y/b) = 1

2x - 3y + 12 = 0

» 2x - 3y = -12

» x/(-12/2) + y/(-12/-3) = 1

» x/(-6) + y/4 = 1

So, intercept on the x coordinate is (-6,0) & intercept on the y coordinate is (0,4).
