Linear Intercepts F91590
1. **State the problem:** Find the x-intercept and y-intercept of the linear equation $$-3x + 11y = 66$$.
2. **Recall the intercept definitions:**
- The x-intercept is where the graph crosses the x-axis, so $y=0$.
- The y-intercept is where the graph crosses the y-axis, so $x=0$.
3. **Find the x-intercept:**
Set $y=0$ in the equation:
$$-3x + 11(0) = 66 \implies -3x = 66$$
Divide both sides by $-3$:
$$x = \frac{66}{-3} = -22$$
So, the x-intercept is $$(-22, 0)$$.
4. **Find the y-intercept:**
Set $x=0$ in the equation:
$$-3(0) + 11y = 66 \implies 11y = 66$$
Divide both sides by $11$:
$$y = \frac{66}{11} = 6$$
So, the y-intercept is $$(0, 6)$$.
**Final answer:**
- x-intercept: $(-22, 0)$
- y-intercept: $(0, 6)$
