Question

what are the x and y intercepts of −6x+3y=−7

Answer 1

Answer:

x intercept is 7/6

y interceptors is -7/6

X intercept is the value of x when y is equal to zero

y intercept is the value of y when x is equal to zero

Answer 2

Answer:

x-intercept is 7/6.

y-intercept is -7/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is −6x+3y=−7

The x intercept is the point on X- axis where the value of y is 0.

So, For x- intercept put y = 0

We get;

−6 x + 3( 0 ) = − 7

or, -6 x = - 7

so, x = 7/6

Whereas y - intercept is the point where the equation of the line cuts the Y axis giving the value of x as 0 there.

So, for y- intercept we put x = 0

we get

−6 x + 3 y = − 7

3 y = 6 x − 7

or, y = 6/3 x -7/3

or , −6 (0) + 3 y = − 7

or, 3y = -7

or, y = -7/3

So, y-intercept is -7/3.
