\

The equation is \"\".

\

First find the y-intercept.

\

The y-intercept is the value of y, when x = 0.

\

\"\"                           (Substitute x = 0 in original equation)

\

\"\"                                       (Zero product property: \"\")\"\"

\

\"\"                             (Divide each side by 0.5)

\

\"\"                                      (Cancel common terms)

\

\"\"                             (Multiply numarator and denominator by 10)

\

\"\"                                       (Multiply: \"\")   

\

\"\"                                          (Divide: \"\")

\

The y-intercept is \"\".

\

The co-ordinate point is (0, 12)\"\"

\

Next find the x-intercept.

\

The x-intercept is the value of x, when y = 0.

\

\"\"                        (Substitute y = 0 in original equation)

\

\"\"                                         (Zero product property: \"\")

\

\"\"                                   (Divide each side by 3)

\

\"\"                                        (Cancel common terms)

\

\"\"                                           (Divide: \"\")

\

The x-intercept is 2

\

The co-ordinate point is (2, 0)\"\"

\

Use these ordered pairs to graph the equation.

\

1.     Draw a coordinate plane.

\

2.     Plot the points.

\

3.     Draw a line through these points.
