Question

Represent 7x + 2y = 14 by a graph. Write the coordinates of the point where it meets (A) X- axis (B) Y-axis

Answer 1

7x +2y = 14

at x = 0 then , y = 7
and if y = 0 then , x = 2

hence, ( 0, 7) and (2, 0) are the points cut in y-axis or x -axis respectively.

Answer 2

Hi there !!!

7x + 2y = 14

We can put different values of x and y to get the solution

<> x = 0 , y = 7
<>x = 2 , y = 0
etc ....
================================

The point where the graph meets x axis :

y = 0

7x = 14
x = 14/2
x = 7

Hence the point where graph meets x axis : ( 7 , 0 )

==========================

the point where graph meets y axis :

x = 0

2 y = 14

y = 14/2

y = 7

the point where graph meets y axis : ( 0 , 7 )
