Find the coordinates of the points where the line represented by the linear equation y=2x-4 intersects x-axis and y-axis.
Answers
Answer:
since given line is y=2x-4
when it cut x axis then y= 0 then
it give x=2
when it cut y axis then x is eual to zero then
it give y= -4
hence intercept on x axis is 2 and on y axis is -4
and coordinate is (2, 0) and (-4, 0)
Answer:
The coordinates of the points where the line represented by the linear equation y=2x-4 intersects the x-axis and y-axis are (2 , 0) and (0 , -4) respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
The straight-line equation y = 2x - 4
To find,
x-intercept (i.e. y = 0)
y-intercept (i.e. x = 0)
Concept,
If a straight line equation is y = mx + c then its y-intercept is c, and its x-intercept is -c/m.
Calculation,
Given, straight-line equation y = 2x - 4
Here, m = 2 and c = -4
Hence,
its x-intercept is -c/m
⇒ -(-4)/2
⇒x-intercept of the given straight line equation y = 2x - 4 is 2
And its y-intercept is given by c
⇒ y-intercept of the given straight line equation y = 2x - 4 is -4
Therefore, the coordinates of the points where the line represented by the linear equation y=2x-4 intersects the x-axis and y-axis are (2 , 0) and (0 , -4) respectively.
