Intercept calculator

x intercept calculator

Find x & y intercept for the line equation 4x + 5y = 9
Solution:

Step 1: Given equation

4x + 5y = 9

Step 2: Find x intercept

To find x intercept, plug y = 0 in the given equation 4x + 5y = 9 & solve for x

4x + 5y = 9

Plug y = 0,

4x + 5(0) = 9

4x = 9

Divide both side of the equation by 4, they get

x = 2.25

Therefore, the x intercept of the equation 4x + 5y = 9 is (2.25, 0)

Step 3: Find y intercept

To

4x + 5y = 9

Plug x = 0,

4(0) + 5y = 9

5y = 9

Divide both side of the equation by 5, they get

y = 1.8

Therefore, the y intercept of the equation 4x + 5y = 9 is (0, 1.8)

Step 4: Solution

X intercept = (2.25, 0)

Y intercept = (0, 1.8)
