Question 609781: how do I find the intercepts if any to the equation Ax+By=C

To find the x-intercept, plug in y = 0 and solve for x. Say your solution is x = c. The x-intercept is then (c,0)

On the flip side, to find the y-intercept, plug in x = 0 and solve for y. If your solution is y = d, then the y-intercept is (0,d)


Hope this helps.
