At what point does the graph of \(5x + 4y = 12\) intersect the y-axis?

Asked by Mackenzie836

Answer (3)

first step is to simplify the equation or calculate..... so the formate of y=mx+b 4y=-5x+12 y=-5/4+3
so slope m=-5/4 b=3 count 3 on the y intercept from zero going up 3,put a dot there . then go down -5 from 3 and then count right 4 and put a dot there.if you need more help ask me or message me.

In there x=0 so 4y=12 or y=3. The point is (0,3) That x=0 is the definition for x intersecting the axis. We're at the same lesson now, lol.

The graph of 5 x + 4 y = 12 intersects the y-axis at the point ( 0 , 3 ) . This point is obtained by substituting x = 0 into the equation to solve for y . Hence, the intersection occurs 3 units above the origin.
