Question

Find the x-, y, and z-intercepts for the equation. Enter your answers separated by commas; example: -2, 3, 4.
2x - 6y - 3z = 12

Answer 1

for x intercept, set y and z to 0, for y-intercept set x and z to 0 and so on..

Answer 2

x intercept:
2x-0-0 = 12
x = 6

Answer 3

you got the rest?

Answer 4

I think so. Next would be 0-6*2-0=12
Making y=2?

Answer 5

y intercept: -6y = 12
y = -2

Answer 6

don't forget the negative sign in front of 6!

Answer 7

and z is...?

Answer 8

I thought it was subtraction, not a negative.

Answer 9

Z-4?

Answer 10

z=4 *

Answer 11

2x - 6y - 3z = 12
2(0) - 6(0) - 3z = 12
-3z = 12
z = -4
