Find the x - and y -intercepts of the graph of the equation y=7x+9y = 7 x + 9y=7x+9 .

A) x -intercept: 97\frac { 9 } { 7 }79 y -intercept: 9
B) x -intercept: - 97\frac { 9 } { 7 }79 y -intercept: 9
C) x -intercept: -7 y -intercept: 9
D) x -intercept: 7 y -intercept: 9
E) x -intercept: 9 y -intercept: 97\frac { 9 } { 7 }79

X-intercepts

X-intercepts are the points where a graph crosses the x-axis, signifying where the function has a value of zero.

Y-intercepts

The points where a line crosses the y-axis of a coordinate system.

  • Examine the associations between points and lines, focusing on their collinearity and interception points.

Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
To find the x-intercept, set y=0y = 0y=0 and solve for xxx , which gives x=−97x = -\frac{9}{7}x=79 . To find the y-intercept, set x=0x = 0x=0 and solve for yyy , which gives y=9y = 9y=9 .
