Reduce the equation 3x – 2y + 6 = 0 to the intercept form and find the x and y - intercepts.
Given: equation is 3x − 2y + 6 = 0
Concept Used:
Line in intercepts form is ( a and b are x and y intercepts resp.)
Explanation:
3x − 2y = - 6
[ Dividing both sides by - 6 ]
Thus, the intercept form of the given line
∴ x - intercept = −2 and y - intercept = 3
