Guys I medal! Find the x and y intercepts of 3x - 2y = -6 x - int: -2 y - int: 3 x - int: 1 y - int: -6 x - int: 6 y - int: 1 x - int: 3 y -int: -2

step 1: Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation : 3*x-2*y-(-6)=0

Step 2 : Solve can u solve?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I recognize that we have here an equation of a straight line.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Such an equation is usually written y=mx+b

OpenStudy (cicilybailey14):

Yeah?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y tells us how far up the line goes x tells us how far along m is the Slope or Gradient like (how steep the line is) b is the Y-intercept like (where the line crosses the Y axis)

OpenStudy (cicilybailey14):

I know that....
