Question

How do you find the x and y intercepts for `3y+4x=2`?

Answer 1

See explanation.

Explanation:

To find `X` intercept, substitute `0` for `y` in the function formula and calculate `x`:

`3*x+4*0=2`

`3x=2`

`x=2/3`

The `X` intercept is `(2/3;0)`

To find `Y` intercept, substitute `0` for `x` in the function formula and calculate `y`:

`3*0+4*y=2`

`4y=2`

`y=1/2`

The `Y` intercept is `(0;1/2)`
