Determine the intercepts of the line.

y + 1=3 (x-4)

X-intercept:

y-intercept:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y + 1 = 3 (x - 4)

y + 1 = 3x - 12

3x - y = 12 + 1

3x - y = 13

Dividing both sides by 13 we get

3x - y = 1

13. 13

or x - y

13 13

3

Comparing with x / a + y/b = 1

so

x-intercept (a) = 13/3

y-intercept (b) = 13
