To find the x-intercept, we set y to 0 and solve for x:
x - 6(0) = 12
x = 12
So the x-intercept is 12.
To find the y-intercept, we set x to 0 and solve for y:
0 - 6y = 12
-6y = 12
y = -2
So the y-intercept is -2.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
a. x-intercept is 12; y-intercept is –2
Find the x- and y-intercept of the line.
x – 6y = 12
