Concept explainers
To calculate: The error in finding the intercepts of the graph of the equation.
Answer to Problem 25E
The two intercepts should be (8, 0) and (0, 2) for the x-intercept and the y-intercept.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The intercepts of the graph of the equation
Formula used:
Substitution method is used
Calculation:
The student made a, mistake and combined the two intercepts to form one intercept. Instead of the intercept being (8, 2), the two intercepts should be (8, 0) and (0, 2) for the x-intercept and the y-intercept.
Conclusion:
The two intercepts should be (8, 0) and (0, 2) for the x-intercept and the y-intercept.
