Question

How do you find the x and y intercepts for `x + y = 1`?

Answer 1

x-intercept `= 1`, y-intercept `= 1`

Explanation:

Intercept form of a linear equation is

`x/a + y/b = 1` where a is x-intercept & b is y-intercept.

Given `x + y = 1`

`x / 1 + y /1 = 1` is the intercept form.

`:.` x-intercept `= 1`, y-intercept `= 1`
