Question

find the solution of the linear equation 3x + y = 12 which represents a point on x axis and y axis ​

Answer 1

Given: The equation 3x + y = 12.

To find: The solution of the linear equation 3x + y = 12 which represents a point on x axis and y axis ​.

Solution:

• Now we have given the equation 3x + y = 12.

• For the point on x axis, we have y = 0.

                   3x + 0 = 12

                   x = 4

• So the point is (4,0)

• For the point on y axis, we have x = 0.

                   3(0) + y = 12

                   y = 12

• So the point is (0,12)

Answer:

              So the solution which represents a point on x axis and y axis is (4,0) and (0,12).
