QuestionFind the intercepts of the line . Provide answers as points for both intercepts.
Studdy Solution
STEP 1
Assumptions1. The equation of the line is
. We are looking for the -intercept and the -intercept3. The -intercept is the point where the line crosses the -axis (i.e., )
4. The -intercept is the point where the line crosses the -axis (i.e., )
STEP 2
First, let's find the -intercept by setting in the equation of the line.
STEP 3
Now, solve the equation for .
STEP 4
Rearrange the equation to isolate .
STEP 5
Divide both sides by to solve for .
STEP 6
Calculate the value of .
So, the -intercept is .
STEP 7
Now, let's find the -intercept by setting in the equation of the line.
STEP 8
implify the equation to find the value of .
So, the -intercept is .
The intercepts of the line are and .
