Finding the x-intercept:
2x + 3(0) = 6 ; Set y = 0 in the equation2x = 6 ; Simplify by multiplying 3 by 0
x = 3 ; Divide by 2 to solve for x
So the x-intercept is at the point (3, 0).
Finding the y-intercept:
2(0) + 3y = 6 ; Set x = 0 in the equation3y = 6 ; Simplify by multiplying 2 by 0
y = 2 ; Divide by 3 to solve for y
So the y-intercept is at the point (0, 2).

Finding the x-intercept:
4x – 2(0) = 8 ; Set y = 0 in the equation4x = 8 ; Simplify by multiplying -2 by 0
x = 2 ; Divide by 4 to solve for x
So the x-intercept is at the point (2, 0).
Finding the y-intercept:
4(0) – 2y = 8 ; Set x = 0 in the equation-2y = 8 ; Simplify by multiplying 4 by 0
y = -4 ; Divide by -2 to solve for y
So the y-intercept is at the point (0, -4).

Finding the x-intercept:
5x + 3(0) = 15 ; Set y = 0 in the equation5x = 15 ; Simplify by multiplying 3 by 0
x = 3 ; Divide by 5 to solve for x
So the x-intercept is at the point (3, 0).
Finding the y-intercept:
5(0) + 3y = 15 ; Set x = 0 in the equation3y = 15 ; Simplify by multiplying 5 by 0
y = 5 ; Divide by 3 to solve for y
So the y-intercept is at the point (0, 5).
