Given:
The equation is x + 4y = 24
Required:
Find the x - intercept and y - intercept?
Explanation:
We know that
[tex]\frac{x}{a}+\frac{y}{b}=1[/tex]Where, a is x - intercept
and b is y - intercept
The x-intercept is where a line crosses the x-axis, and the y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.
Now,
[tex]\begin{gathered} x+4y=24 \\ \frac{x}{24}+\frac{y}{6}=1 \end{gathered}[/tex]From this we can say that x - intercept (24, 0) and y - intercept (0, 6).
Answer:
Hence, (24, 0) and (0, 6) are intercept of given equation.
