What are the x and y-intercepts of the line described by the equation?

2x + 4y = 12.4

Enter your answers, in decimal form, in the boxes.

x-intercept = ____

y-intercept = _____

Respuesta :

you find the x-intercept by putting y = 0:-
2x+ 4(0) = 12.4

2x = 12.4

x = 6.2 answer

y intercept  Put x = 0

4y = 12.4
y = 3.1 answer


The x and y intercept of the given line is required,

The x intercept is [tex](6.2,0)[/tex]

The y intercept is [tex](0,3.1)[/tex]

The given line is [tex]2x+4y=12.4[/tex]

x intercept [tex]y=0[/tex]

[tex]2x+4\times 0=12.4\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{12.4}{2}\\\Rightarrow x=6.2[/tex]

The x intercept is [tex](6.2,0)[/tex]

y intercept [tex]x=0[/tex]

[tex]2\times 0+4y=12.4\\\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{12.4}{4}\\\Rightarrow y=3.1[/tex]

The y intercept is [tex](0,3.1)[/tex]
