To calculate: The x -intercept and y -intercept of the equation

Answer to Problem 15CYU
The x -intercept is
The y-intercept is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The equation
Formula used:
The x -intercept is the value of x when
The y -intercept is the value of y when
Calculation:
It is provided that the equation
For x -intercept substitute
Adding 6 on both the sides and further dividing by 3 we get,
The x -intercept is
For y -intercept substitute
Re − writing equation we get,
The y-intercept is
Therefore, the ordered pair is
Now, the plot the points
Figure 1.
The x -intercept is
The y-intercept is
