find the intercepts and graph the function?
what does each intercept represents? Answer by macston(5194) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 3x + 1.5y=30
y-intercept: (x=0)
3(0)+1.5y=30
y=30/1.5=20 y-intercept is (0,20), when the family buys all hot dogs
x-intercept: (y=0)
3x+1.5(0)=30
3x=30
x=10 x-intercept is (10,0) when the family buys all hamburgers
