At what point does the line 3x + 2y = -12 intercept the Y-axis?
Read Solution (Total 4)
-
- For finding Y-intercept put x=0;
We get Y = -6;
So Y intercept = -6;
And points of intersection are ( X= 0 , Y = -6 ) and ( X= -4, Y = 0 ) - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(18) No(2)
- Y intercept means
a y-intercept is a point on the graph where x is zero.
hence point is 0,-6 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(4) No(1)
- A line will intercept on Y-axis when x = 0
Put x=0 in 3x + 2y = -12 & get the value of y = -6 - 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- Since the line intercepts y-axis therefore we can put y=0 in the equation to get the actual point of interception.
3x+2*0=-12
3x=-12
x=-4
Therefore the pointis (-4,0) - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(10)
