Calculation:
Consider, the equation, y=3(2x+1),
To compute x-intercept, put y=0,
0=3(2x+1)
Multiply by 13 on both the sides,
130=33(2x+1)
0=2x+1
Subtract 1 on both sides,
01=2x+11
1=2x
Divide the equation by 2,
12=2x2
x=12
So, the x-intercept is (12,0).
To compute y -intercept, put x=0,
y=3(2(0)+1)
y=31
y=3
So, the y -intercept is (0,3).
Hence, x and y -intercepts of y=3(2x+1) are (12,0) and (0,3),respectively.
