Question

Choose the correct x-intercept and y-intercept of the equation 3x − 2y = 6.

x-intercept: (0, −3), y-intercept: (0, 2)

x-intercept: (−3, 0), y-intercept: (2, 0)

x-intercept: (0, 2), y-intercept: (0, −3)

x-intercept: (2, 0), y-intercept: (0, −3)

Answer 1

to get x intercept put y=0 (since x intercept is on x axis) solve for x .do the same for y

Answer 2

x-intercept: (2, 0), y-intercept: (0, −3) (my anwser)

Answer 3

Arrange equation to the "slope intercept" form.
2y = 3x - 6
Solve for y with x=0
2y=-6
y=-3 (0,-3)

Now solve for x with y=0
0=3x-6
3x=6
x=2
(2,0)

Answer 4

A very likeable answer.
