What is the X & y intercepts to the equation -4x+3y = 24

Question

What would be the X & y intercepts to the equation? 

Answer 1

we have equation -4x + 3y = 24

 

to find x-intercept, plug in 0 to y:  -4x + 3(0) = 24 ----->-4x = 24 -----> x = -6

 

so x-intercept is (-6,0)

 

to find y-intercept, plug in 0 to x: -4(0) + 3y = 24 ----> y = 8

 

so y-intercept is (0,8)
