Question

find the X and Y intercepts of line 2x - 3 Y + 12 equal to zero​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-3y+12=0 (transpose)

2x+12=3y

y=2x+12/3

if x=3

y=6

(substitute x value in the underlined equation and find the intersepts)

Answer 2

Answer:

x intercept = -6

y intercept = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

x intercept is the point where the line meets the x axis i.e. the ordinate of x intercept is 0.

putting y = 0 in the equation of the line :-

2x - 3(0) + 12 = 0

=> 2x = -12

=> x = -6

y intercept is the point where the line meets the y axis i.e. the abscissa of x intercept is 0.

putting x = 0 in the equation of the line :-

2(0) - 3y + 12 = 0

=> -3y = -12

=> y = 4

hope it helps :)
