Question

can anyone help? sketch the line 3x + 4y = 24, indicating the intercepts on both axes

Answer 1

solve the equation for y:
4y=-3x+24
y=-3/4x+6
The line crosses the y axis at 6 (y-intercept is 0,6).
Another way to get this is y=-3/4(0)+6
y= 6 (0,6)
To get the x intercept, solve the equation when y=0.
0=-3/4x+6
-6=-3/4x
-8 = x x intercept is (-8,0)
