Please help me solve this equation:
Find the y-intercept and x-intercept for the equation
4x+6y=96
Type an ordered pair

In order to find the x-intercept, you must make y=0. Plug that into your equation and solve:

Multiply:

Divide both sides by 4:

So, your x-intercept is 24.

To find the y-intercept, you do the opposite. You must make x=0:

Multiply:

Divide both sides by 6:

So, your y-intercept is 16.

As for coordinates, just use the coordinates of the intercepts. They are (24,0) and (0,16).
