Answer:
-b/a =x
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the x intercept, let y =0 and solve for x
0 =ax+b
Subtract b from each side
-b = ax+b-b
-b = ax
Divide each side by a
-b/a = ax/a
-b/a =x
Answer:
x intercept=-b/a
y intercept=b
Step-by-step explanation:
to find x intercept put y=0
0=ax+b
ax=-b
x=-b/a
to find y intercept put x=0
y=b
