IF THIS IS A LINE EQUATION THEN:
3x-2y=32
-2y=-3x+32
y=-3x/-2+32/-2
y=3x/2-16
THIS LINE HAS A SLOPE (m) OF 3/2 & A Y INTERCEPT (b) OF -16.
(graph 400x400 pixels, x from -16 to 16, y from -20 to 20, y = 3x/2 -16).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The way to find out what x & y equal is the following:
Set y=0 and solve for x in the equation y=3x/2-16 thus:
0=3x/2-16
3x/2=16
3x=32
x=32/3 answer (32/3,0)
Now set x=0 & solve for y thus:
y=3/2*0-16
y=-16 answer (0,-16)
