Y=-1/4x+1
I need to find the x-intercept and y-intercept plsss show work on this

the equation 6x -18y = 18 is an equation of a straight line

the x intercept is the point on the X axis when y = 0

The y intercept is the point on the Y axis when x = 0

Therfore first setting y = 0 the equation becomes 6x = 18; divide both sides by 6 and you get x =3;

the point ( x,y) or ( 3,0) lies on the X axis and it called the x intercept

to find the y intercept, set x = 0 in the equation and you get, -18y=18; divide both sides by -18 then

y= -1; the point (x,y) or (0, -1) lies on the Y axis and it is called the y intercept

for the two points ( 3,0) and (0,-1) plotted on a cartesian system of coordinates you get a line passing through point (3,0) on the  X axis and the point (0,-1) on the Y axis

To find the slope of that line divide the difference between the Y coordinates by the difference between the x coordinates. that is

Slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = ( -1-0)/(0-3) = -1/-3 = 1/3

the equation of the line would be a function of the slope and anypoint that passes through the line

Lets try first the slope and the x intercept (3,0)

The equation of the line would be, Slope = (y-0)/(x-3) = 1/3

Solving 1/3(x-3)=y, and y=(1/3)x-3(1/3), then y=(1/3)x-1

Lets try now the slope and te y intercept (0,-1)

The equation of the line would be, Slope = (y-(-1))/(x-0) = y+1/x = 1/3

Solving y+1 = (1/3) x , and y = (1/3)x -1

and either point and slope lead to the same equation of a straigth line of the form y=mx+b

Where m = 1/3 is the slope. and b = -1 is the y intercept of that line.

answer: if you weigh 60 pounds on earth, on the moon you will weigh about 10 pounds. if you weigh 120 pounds on earth, you will weigh about 20 pounds on the moon. since weight is caused by the mass of two objects that are near each other, the bigger the objects, the more the force of gravity.

step-by-step explanation: if you weigh 60 pounds on earth, on the moon you will weigh about 10 pounds. if you weigh 120 pounds on earth, you will weigh about 20 pounds on the moon. since weight is caused by the mass of two objects that are near each other, the bigger the objects, the more the force of gravity.
