Question

The points (-3,-1) and (-2,2) are on a line. Find the intercepts to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

Using the two-point calculator of a line, enter the points, and observe that their equation is y = 3x + 8. Because the line is in slope-intercept form, the y-intercept is 8 or (0,8). If y = 0, the x-intercept can be calculated to be -8/3 or (-8/3,0)

Answer 2

so (8,3)

Answer 3

The y intercept to the nearest tenth is 8.0
The x intercept to the nearest tenth is -2.7
----
You cannot combine the intercepts into a single point (8.3). That is wrong.
They are two separate points.
x-intercept is (-8/3,0).
y-intercept is (0,8).

Answer 4

oh ok so -8 over 3, 0 as the x intercept and as the y intercept 0,8

Answer 5

x-intercept is (-8/3,0)
y-intercept is (0,8)
Yes.
