The equation that represents the canned goods order is 24x + 64y = 384, where x = number of minutes producing fruit cans and y = number of minutes producing vegetable cans. What is the real world meaning of the x-intercept?

Xint is where the line crosses the x axis or where y=0

that means when you spen 0 minutes producing vegetable cans

that is when you spend all your time making fruit cans

Substitute 0 for the x - value in the equation and solve for y. The result is y = 6, so the y - intercept is at (0, 6). Next, substitute 0 for the y - value in the equation and solve for x. The result is x = 16, so the x - intercept is at (16, 0).
