Question

How do you find x and y intercept and write each as an ordered pair. -3x+4y=8?

Answer 1

`(-8/3,0)"and " (0,2)`

Explanation:

`"to find the intercepts"`

`• " let x = 0, in equation for y-intercept"`

`• " let y = 0, in equation for x-intercept"`

`x=0to0+4y=8rArry=2larrcolor(red)" y-intercept"`

`y=0to-3x=8rArrx=-8/3larrcolor(red)" x-intercept"`

`" expressing these as ordered pairs"`

`rArr(0,2)" and " (-8/3,0)`
