3x+2y=6 i need the x -intercept and the y-intercept

-You find x when y=0, so finding x-step 1. make y=0so its 3x+2(0)=6step 2. solve 2 times 0, =0so its 3x=6step 3. divide both sides by 3 to get x by itselfso its x=2.......
show work step by step

-
x intercept
set y=0
3x+2(0)=6
3x=6
x=2

y intercept
set x=0
3(0)+2y=6
2y=6
y=3

I'm a little tempted to ask you if you go to my school :) We learned about this recently, so it's still fresh in my mind. (I had a test over it today)

If I remember right, it's the one with the 0's.
( / = divide )
First you do:
3(0)+2y=6
0+2y=6
2y/2= y and 6/2= 3
so y= 3

Next you do:
3x+2(0)=6
3x+0= 6
3x/3= x and 6/3= 2
so x=2

The answers are y= 2 and x= 3
If you're suppost to graph it afterwards, remember that the 'Y-axis' is the one that goes up and down and the 'X-axis' is the one that does sideways.

You find x when y=0, so finding x-
step 1. make y=0
so it's 3x+2(0)=6

step 2. solve 2 times 0, =0
so it's 3x=6

step 3. divide both sides by 3 to get x by itself
so it's x=2. Keep this answer to the side

Now, let's find y-
step 1. make x=0
so it's 3(0)+2y=6

step 2. solve 3 times 0, =0
so it's 2y=6

step 3. divide both sides by 2 to get y by itself
so it's y=3.

Now you have the answer of the intercepts, x=2 and y=3.
If the question asked you to write this as an ordered pair, it would be (2,3)
Hope I helped.<3

..in finding the x-intercept..
..equate y to 0..
3x+2(0)=6
..simplify it..
3x=6
..then solve for x..
x=2

..in finding the y-intercept..
..equate x to 0..
3(0)+2y=6
..simplify it..
2y=6
..then solve for y..
y=3

..therefore..the x-intercept is 2..and the y-intercept is 3..

Hey my dear its preety simple. See the eqn. x/a +y/b =1. Is d equation of a straight line whose x nd y intercepts are a nd b respectivly. Just divide both side of ur equatn by 6 so dat the rhs becomes 1. Den u will get x/2 +y/3 =1. Nw ur x intercept is 2 nd y intercept is 3 . Dats it.
I hope u r satisfiex wid my ans.

Rearrange to
2y = 6 - 3x
Divide by 2
y = 3 - 1½x

Y intercept is 3
X intercept : set Y = 0
0 = 3 - 1½x
1½x = 3
x = 2
X intercept is 2

Hope I helped :)

For the x-intercept, y = 0
3x + 2(0) = 6
3x = 6
x = 2

For the y-intercept, x = 0
3(0) + 2y = 6
2y = 6
y = 3

I hope this information was very helpful.

-
Using y=mx+b form
2y=-3x+6
y=-3/2x+3
y intercept =(0,3)
plug in "0" for the y to find the x
hope i helped:)

-
x intercept 2

y intercept 3

-
To find Y just let X = 0
To find X just let Y = 0

Are you gonna graph it?

Or someone wants some complicated way.
