Find the y and x intercept 6x-8y=48

6x-8y=48

to find the x intercept  set y=0

6x - 8*0 = 48

6x = 48

divide by 6 on each side

x =48/6

x=8

 (8,0)

to find the y intercept  set x=0

6(0) - 8y = 48

0 - 8y = 48

-8y = 48

divide by -8 on each side

y = -6

(0,-8)

7 ft 6 in means 7 1/2, because 6 in is 1/2 of a foot. 7 ft 8 in means 7 2/3 because 8 in is 2/3 of a foot. 23/3 = 7 2/3. 15/2 = 7 1/2.

23/3   *   15/2   = 57 1/2
