2y + x = 12
At the x-intercept, y=0:
x = 12
At the y-intercept, x=0:
2y = 12
y = 6

You would set the equation equal to 0 and then solve for x. You may get one or several answers for x, x being the number(s) that make the equation equal 0.
Set 'x' equal to zero, and solve the remaining equation for 'y'.
You didn't specify the equation. A minimum or maximum value of a function is often found by calculating the derivative of a function, writing an equation for derivative equal to zero, and then analyzing points where the derivative either doesn't exist, or is equal to zero. You'll find find information about this in introductory calculus books.
The slope is the gradient which is y2-y1/x2-x1 To find the y int you set the equation of the line equal to zero i think :/

when the equation is equal to zero. . .:)
Two parallel lines have equal slopes.
Set 'x' equal to zero, and solve the remaining equation for 'y'.
well what does it equal to find out

first of all, i dont see how slope and yintercept has anything to do with shopping. usually in an equation, y= mx+b, m stands for slope, and b is the y-intercept. x and y are just x and y. If the equation is mixed up, and is not in y=mx+b format, you need to solve to get y on one side, the slope, x, and whatever the presented constant is (which is the y-intercept) on the other side. hope this helps.
At the x-intercept on the graph of the equation, y=0. Take the equation, set 'y' equal to zero, and solve the equation for 'x'. The number you get is the x-intercept.
