Question

. Find the x and y intercepts. Please show all of your work.
-3x + 8y = 24

Answer 1

yint=3

Answer 2

x=-8

Answer 3

3x+24=3y
x+8=y

Answer 4

y intercept is 8 and x intercept is -8

Answer 5

x intercept is when y =0
y intercept is when x=0

Answer 6

Yeah... except the question asks for 8y NOT 3y
so the y intercept will be 3
but yes the x intercept is -8
and yes you find the intercepts by setting the opposite variable to 0.

Answer 7

so it would be this (-8,0)(0,-8)

Answer 8

nope

Answer 9

ill plot it for you

Answer 10

Oh u are right I am sorry for confusing u

Answer 11

simple one equation so just plug in the value for x = 0 once
and y = 0 other time u will get the x and y intercepts !!!!!

Answer 12

3x+24=8y
3/8x+3=y
(3/8)(0)+3=y
y=3 y intercept
3/8x+3=0
3/8x=-3
3x=-24
x=-8 x interecept

Answer 13

now that I understand.. thanks

Answer 14

when x = 0
-3x + 8y = 24
=> -3*0 + 8y = 24
=> y = 3
when y = 0
-3x + 8*0 = 24
=> x = -8

intercepts are (0, 3) and (-8,0)

Answer 15

I always give everyone the wrong answer and confuse them!

Answer 16

haahahha u dont feel like that..at least u dont use softwares for solving
