To find the x-intercept, we set y = 0 and solve for x:
2x + 4(0) = 12.4
2x = 12.4
x = 6.2
So the x-intercept is (6.2, 0).
To find the y-intercept, we set x = 0 and solve for y:
2(0) + 4y = 12.4
4y = 12.4
y = 3.1
So the y-intercept is (0, 3.1).
What are the x and y-intercepts of the line described by the equation?
2x + 4y = 12.4
