What are the x and y-intercepts of the line described by this equation? 2x 4y = 12.4 enter your answers in the boxes in decimal form
The x and y-intercepts of the line described by this equation is
x=6.2 and y = 3.1
Given :
Equation of a line is \(2x+4y=12.4\)
Lets find out x and y intercepts for the given line '
To find out x intercept , we replace y with 0 in the given equation
\(2x+4y=12.4\\y=0\\2x+4(0)=12.4\\2x=12.4\\divide \; by \; 2\\x=6.2\)
X intercept is (6.2,0)
To find out y intercept , we replace x with 0
\(2x+4y = 12.4\\2(0)+4y=12.4\\4y=12.4\\Divide \; by 4\\y=3.1\\\)
y intercept is (0,3.1)
