Find x-and y-Intercepts...1

Question 24

Let y = 0

0 = 8 - 3x

-8 = -3x

-8/-3 = x

8/3 = x

The x-intercept is 8/3. Can the x-intercept be expressed as a point (8/3, 0)?

Let x = 0

y = 8 - 3(0)

y = 8 - 0

y = 8

The y-intercept is 8. Can the y-intercept be expressed as a point (0, 8)?

correct

yes, the x-intercept be expressed as a point (8/3, 0) and the y-intercept be expressed as a point (0, 8)

Thanks. I am actually working but it's very quiet here on Monday nights due to the fact that most employees are still working from home especially in Chicago, NY and California. Interesting huh?
