Given Line Eqn---->12x-6y=18
We'll get the Intercepts via Slope-Intercept Formsystem%28y=mx%2Bb%29
Transforming---->6y=12x-8--->cross%286%29y%2Fcross%286%29=%2812x-8%29%2F6
y=%2812%2F6%29x-%288%2F6%29=red%28y=%281%2F2%29x-%284%2F3%29%29, Eqn in SLope-Intercept Form

Let fy=0: ------> 0=%281%2F2%29x-%284%2F3%29--->%281%2F2%29x=4%2F3%29, cross multiply
3x=4%2A2=8--->cross%283%29x%2Fcross%283%29=8%2F3
red%28x=8%2F3%29, X-Intercept
Let fx=0:-------> y=%281%2F2%29%280%29-%284%2F3%29
red%28y=-4%2F3%29, Y-Intercept
We'll see graph:
