The x intercept of the line is a point at which the line passes through the x -axis and at that y = 0
Substitute y = 0 in the given expression:
-12x + 3y =24
-12x + 3(0) = 24
-12x=24
x=24/-12
x =-2
The x- intercept is x = -2
In the coordinate form x- intercept is (x, y) = (-2,0)
The y-intercept of the line is a point at which the line passes through the y -axis and at that point x =0
Substitute the x=0 in the given expression
-12x + 3y =24
-12(0) + 3y =24
0 +3y =24
y=24/3
y = 8
The y - intercept is y =8
In the coordinate form y-intercept is (x,y) = (0,8)
Answer :
the coordinate form x- intercept is (x, y) = (-2,0)
the coordinate form y-intercept is (x,y) = (0,8)
