What is the x-intercept of the line with the equation?
\[ 8x - \frac{1}{3}y = 16 \]
Answer (2)
One thing is you need to get x on one side and y on the other :) 8x-1/3y=16 Just like any equation you subtract 8x 8x-1/3y=16 -8x -8x -1/3y=16-8x Now you want y all alone. So you divide. To me I think you divide by -3. But you might want to check and divided by by -1/3 (just in case) -1/3y=16-8x -3 y=-5.33(3 is repeating) - 2.6666667x
I really do this help you out! :D
The x-intercept of the line given by the equation 8 x − 3 1 y = 16 occurs when y = 0 . Upon substituting y = 0 into the equation and solving, we find that the x-intercept is at x = 2 , or the point ( 2 , 0 ) .
