Find the x and y Intercepts x+y=6

Problem

x+y=6

Solution

1. Find the x-intercept by setting y=0 in the equation.

x+0=6

x=6

2. Find the y-intercept by setting x=0 in the equation.

0+y=6

y=6

3. Identify the coordinates for each intercept. The x-intercept occurs at (6,0) and the y-intercept occurs at (0,6)

Final Answer

x-intercept: *(6,0), y-intercept: *(0,6)
