Choose the correct procedure used to graph the equation 3x - 4y = 12 using the intercepts method. Choose one answer. A. Solve the equation for y to find an intercept of (-3, 0); solve the equation for x to find a y-intercept of (0, 4). Plot the two points and draw a line passing through the two points. B. Solve the equation for y to get a y-intercept of (0, -3) and a slope of . Plot the y-intercept, count the slope to get another point and draw the line that passes through the two points. C. Choose two different values; plug them into the equation to find the corresponding y-val
so I got y=3x/4-3
that is correct.
How do I graph it?
find the x-intercept and y-intercept.
plot those two points and then connect them by drawing a straight line through them.
Do you know how to achieve the correct answer by the process of elimination?
Nope, how do I find the x & y int. ?
x-intercept (when y=0) x-intercept will be ( ,0) y=intercept (when x=0) y-intercept will be (0, )
insert that into the equation of course.
Y=(0,0)?
no.
Shoot! I'll try again
3x-4y=12 when x=0 for y-intercept. 3(0)-4y=12 now finish it by solving for y.
(0,-3)?
yes.
(4,0)?
yes.
Thank you!
no problem.
and just a heads up, u should reward people for helping u.
How do you do that?o:
give them a medal, do you see the medal sign on the right of ur comment?
u just click Best Response next to the medal.
Okay! Done! Thanks a lot! :)
your welcome.
