.
2x -3y = -19
.
subtract 2x from both sides
.
-3y = -2x -19
.
divide both sides by -3
.
y = (-2/-3)x -19/(-3)
.
y = 2/3x + 19/3
.
y-intercept is when x=0, it = 19/3,
which is the point (0, 19/3)
.
x-intercept is when y=0, so set y=0 and solve for x.
0 = 2/3x + 19/3
subtract 19/3 from both sides
-19/3 = 2/3x
multiply both sides by 3 to eliminate fraction
-19 = 2x
2x = -19
divide both sides by 2
x = -19/2
so the x-intercept is (-19/2,0)
