Answer:
The points of both x-axis and y axis are (6,0) and (0,-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Given equation is 2x-3y=12
Lines cuts by both x-axis and y –axis
Step 2:
y can be expressed in terms of x as,
2x-3y=12
=2x-12=3y
y= 2/3x-4
Step 3:
the points where this line cuts the x-axis and y-axis can be found as,
put y=0 in 2x-3y=12
=2x-3(0)=12
2x-0=12
X=6
Step 4:
Put x=0 in 2x-3y=12
Then 2(0)-3y=12
0-3y=12
-3y=12
Y= -4
Result:
Thus the points of both x-axis and y axis is (6,0) and (0,-4).
Here is your answer
