Question 499315: Identify the correct x intercept and y intercept of the equation 2x - 3y = -18.
Answer
x intercept = (9, 0); y intercept = (0, -6)
x intercept = (-6, 0); y intercept = (0, 9)
x intercept = (6, 0); y intercept = (0, -9)
x intercept = (-9, 0); y intercept = (0, 6)
Answer by oberobic(2304)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2x -3y = -18
-3y = -2x -18
y = (2/3)x + 6
.
The y-intercept is (0,6).
.
The x-intercept is where y=0.
.
0 = 2/3x + 6
2/3x = -6
x = -9
x-intercept = (0,-9)
.
Check with a graph.
