Question

Write the coordinate points of the x and y intercepts of 32x-By-24. (2 points) x intercept 1 2 3

Answer 1

The given expression is

$32x-8y=24$

To find the x-intercept, we make y = 0.

$\begin{gathered} 32x-8(0)=24 \\ 32x=24 \\ x=\frac{24}{32} \\ x=\frac{3}{4} \end{gathered}$

The x-intercept is (3/4, 0).

To find the y-intercept, we make x = 0.

$\begin{gathered} 32(0)-8y=24 \\ -8y=24 \\ y=\frac{24}{-8} \\ y=-3 \end{gathered}$

The y-intercept is (0, -3).
