Question

Find negative X negative white interception of each equation. Use a decimal answer if your answer is not an integer.

Answer 1

SOLUTION

Given:

$y=-2x+7$

To determine x-intercept;

$\begin{gathered} y=0; \\ 0=-2x+7 \\ 2x=7 \\ x=\frac{7}{2}=3.5 \end{gathered}$

x -intercept =(3.5,0)

To determine y-intercept;

$\begin{gathered} x=0; \\ y=-2(0)+7 \\ y=7 \end{gathered}$

y-intercept = (0, 7)
