Find The Value Of The Y-Intercept Of The Line Whose Equation Is 5x - 3y = -12.
Find the value of the y-intercept of the line whose equation is 5x - 3y = -12.
Y-intercept:
5x - 3y = -12
Let x = 0
5(0) - 3y = -12
0 - 3y = -12
(-3y = -12)(1/-3)
-3y/-3 = -12/-3
y = 4
X-intercept:
5x - 3y = -12
Let y = 0
5x - 3(0) = -12
5x - 0 = -12
(5x = -12)(1/5)
x = -12/5 or x = -2 2/5 or x = -2.4
