Question

Find the coordinates of the points where the equation 3x + y = 6 intersects both the axis

Answer 1

let x=1
y= 6-3=2
therefore coordinates are (1,2)

Answer 2

Answer:

The graph intersect x-axis at (2,0) and y-axis at (0,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have to find the coordinates of the points where the equation 3x + y = 6 intersects both the axis.

When the cut y-axis the ordinate can be calculated by putting x=0

⇒ 3x + y = 6

3(0)+y=6

y=6

When the cut x-axis the x-coordinate can be calculated by putting y=0

⇒ 3x + y = 6

3x+0=6

x=2

Hence, the graph intersect x-axis at (2,0) and y-axis at (0,6)
