Question

express y in the equation 2x + 3y = 11 also , find the point where the line represented by the equation 2x+3y = 11 cut y axis

Answer 1

Answer:

(i) Express y in equation 2x + 3y = 11

$3y = 11 - 2x \\ y = \frac{11 - 2x}{3}$

(ii) To find the point where the equation cuts y axis:-

Since equation cuts y axis, the value of x = 0

putting the value of x in the equation we get:-

2(0) + 3y = 11

3y = 11

$y = \frac{11}{3}$

so the point where the equation cuts y axis is (0,11/3)
