The x-intercept occurs at y = 0.
6x + 2(0) = 11
x = 11/6
The y-intercept occurs at x = 0
6(0) + 2y = 11
y = 11/2

The x-intercept occurs at y = 0.
6x + 2(0) = 11
x = 11/6
The y-intercept occurs at x = 0
6(0) + 2y = 11
y = 11/2
The equation can also be written as y = -3x + 11/2
By inspection, you can see that the y-intercept is 11/2.
When you set y=0, you find that x = 11/6 which is the x-intercept.
