Question - Linear Equation Word Problem with Intercepts
Solution:
The image contains a word problem about Maggie working two jobs and a linear equation derived from it, with questions asking to find the x-intercept and y-intercept for that equation. The given equation is:15x + 14y = 630Part (b) of the question asks to find the x-intercept and y-intercept for the equation.To find the x-intercept, we set y to 0 and solve for x:15x + 14(0) = 63015x = 630x = 630 / 15x = 42So the x-intercept is (42, 0).To find the y-intercept, we set x to 0 and solve for y:15(0) + 14y = 63014y = 630y = 630 / 14y = 45So the y-intercept is (0, 45).Filling in the blanks from the image:x-intercept: (42, 0)y-intercept: (0, 45)
