X intercepts:
X intercepts The equation is 3x+2y=1
First, you replace the y with a zero.
Then you get the x alone.
Finally you do the reciprocal of the x onto the other side.
3x+2y=1
3x+2(0)=1
3x=1
(1/3)3x=1(1/3)
X=1/3 (1/3,0)
Y intercepts:
Y intercepts The equation is 3x+2y=4
First, you replace the x with zero.
Then, you get the x by its self.
Finally you get the reciprocal of the y and other number, in this case 4.
3x+2y=4
3(0)+2y=4
2y=4
(1/2)2y=4(1/2)
Y=2 (0,2)
