Answer to Problem 12STP
X-intercept is (
Y-intercept is (0,
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The equation is
Concept used: x -intercept is the point where the line crosses the x- axis. Y -intercept is the point where the line crosses the y -axis.
So, x - intercept is when y is 0. Plug in y as 0 into the equation then solve for x .
Simplify and solve for x .
Subtract both sides 3.
Divide both sides by 4.
So, x - intercept is
Now, find the y -intercept. So, plug in x as 0.
Solve it for y .
Divide both sides by 2.
Y-intercept is
