Question

How do i find the x,y, and z intercepts !!??!??!!?!?!??!

Answer 1

someone please help me

Answer 2

x-intercept you let y,z=0
y-intercept you let x,z=0
z-intercept you let z,y=0

Answer 3

okay so sub everything for 0 right , i did that and it says ts wrong ??!!

Answer 4

can i see the question

Answer 5

and your answer

Answer 6

question is 2x-6y-3z=12 and my answer is (6,-2,-4)

Answer 7

x-intercept will be in form (a,0,0)
y-intercept will be in the form (0,b,0)
z-intercept will be in the form (0,0,c)
where a,b,c are some number

Answer 8

so for example to find the x-intercept (a,0,0)
means replace y and z with 0
so we have
2x-6(0)-3(0)=12
2x=12
x=6
so the x-intercept is (6,0,0)

Answer 9

okay so i got that, and do i plug 6 into x and like y as 0 and z as z orrrrrrrrrr ?

Answer 10

?

Answer 11

(6,0,0) is the x-intercept
this means when y=0 and z=0,x=6

Answer 12

i dont get it ))):

Answer 13

may ask what part

Answer 14

how to find the y and z intercepts

Answer 15

so you didn't understand the example for x-intercept then?

Answer 16

this is the actual question thy gave me Find the x-, y-, and z-intercepts for the following equation. (Enter your answers separated by commas, like this example: -2, 3, 4).

2x – 6y – 3z = 12

Answer 17

i did but i keep getting the same answer , but its wrong

Answer 18

so for example the x-interecpt
do they want you to enter the number or the ordered pair?

Answer 19

like you can say the x-intercept is 6
but I prefer the (6,0,0)

Answer 20

i have to find all intercepts and then put them together

Answer 21

so you entered in this exactly: 6,-2,-4

Answer 22

yes i did , with the parenthesis

Answer 23

I don't think you should be parenthesis around it
that isn't a 3tuple or whatever it is called
those are individual intercepts

Answer 24

LOL im not supposed to put paranethesis HAAA, Thank you so much for helping me

Answer 25

lol congrats
