The line equation is .
First find the x-intercept, let y = 0 and solve for x.
\ (Substitute 0 for y)
(Add
to each side)
(Simplify)
(Multiply each side by
)
(Cancel common terms)
(Divide:
)
The x-intercept is 1.5.So plot the point x-axis at (1.5, 0)
To find the y-intercept, let x = 0 and solve for y.
\ (Substitute 0 for x)
(Simplify)
(Divide:
