Question 538398: find the x and y intercepts of: y = -2x - 6
Answer by nerdybill(7384) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! find the x and y intercepts of: y = -2x - 6
.
to find the x-intercepts, set y=0 solve for x:
y = -2x - 6
0 = -2x - 6
6 = -2x
-3 = x
so, x-intercept is at (-3,0)
.
to find the y-intercepts, set x=0 solve for y:
y = -2x - 6
y = -2(0) - 6
y = -6
so, y-intercept is at (0,-6)
