Chapter 2: Q24. (page 101)

Find the x-intercept and the y-intercept of the graph of each equation.
$6 x = - 12 y + 48$

Short Answer

Expert verified

The x-intercept is $8$ .

The y-intercept is $4$ .

Step by step solution

– Defining the x-intercept and y-intercept

The x-intercept is the value of x when $y = 0$ .

The y-intercept is the value of y when $x = 0$ .

– Determining the x-intercept

We have:

$6 x = - 12 y + 48$

Putting $y = 0$ :

$\begin{matrix} 6 x = 鈭� 12 (0) + 48 \\ 6 x = 48 \\ x = 8 \end{matrix}$

Hence, x-intercept is 8.

– Determining the y-intercept

We have:

$6 x = - 12 y + 48$

Putting $x = 0$ :

$\begin{matrix} 6 (0) = 鈭� 12 y + 48 \\ 0 = 鈭� 12 y + 48 \\ 12 y = 48 \\ y = 4 \end{matrix}$

Hence, y-intercept is 4.
