Question
Draw the graph of the linear equation 3x + 4y = 6. At what points, the graph cuts the x-axis and the y-axis.
Solution
Consider the linear equation:
3x + 4y = 6
The solution of given (above) linear equation can be expressed as a table as follows:
| x | 2 | –2 | 0 |
| y | 0 | 3 | 1.5 |
Now, plot that above point on the graph paper and then join the points, see below:
Therefore, the graph cuts the x-axis at (2, 0) and y-axis at (0, 1.5).
