Question
Draw the graph of the equation given below. Also, find the coordinates of the point
where the graph cuts the coordinate axes : 6x − 3y = 12
Solution
we have
6x − 3y = 12
⇒ 3 (2x - y ) = 12
⇒ 2x - y = 4
⇒ 2x - 4 = y
⇒ y = 2x - 4 ................ (1)
Putting x = 0 in (1) , we get y =- 4
Putting x = 2 in (1) , we get y = 0
Thus, we obtain the following table giving coordinates of two points on the line
represented by the equation 6x - 3y = 12
