I assume you mean......
3X - 2Y = 6
- 2Y = - 3X + 6
Y = (3/2)X - 3
=============now, zero out variables in turn
Y = (3/2)0 - 3
Y = - 3
===
Y intercept = (0, - 3)
X intercept = (2, 0)
X intercept: -5 Y intercept: +3
-- If you know the general shape of a graph, and you can quickly determine the x- and y-intercepts, that's often enough information to make a pretty accurate sketch of the graph. -- In particular, if the equation is a linear one, then you know the graph will be a straight line; and then, as soon as you know the x- and y-intercepts, just draw the line between them and you don't need anything else ... that's your graph.
To find the intercepts of the equation (3xy = 15), we first rewrite it as (y = \frac{15}{3x} = \frac{5}{x}). The x-intercept occurs when (y = 0), which does not exist for this equation since (y) is undefined when (x = 0). For the y-intercept, we set (x = 0), but again, this results in division by zero, indicating there is no y-intercept either. Therefore, the graph has no x- or y-intercepts.

The y-intercept is the value of the function when 'x' is zero. That is, it's the point at which the graph of the function intercepts (crosses) the y-axis. The x-intercept is the value of 'x' that makes the value of the function zero. That is, it's the point at which 'y' is zero, and the graph of the function intercepts the x-axis.
The x and y intercepts are where a line on a graph intersects (crosses over) the x or y axis.
X intercept: -5 Y intercept: +3
In the equation y = f(x), Put x = 0 and solve for y. Those are the y intercepts. Put y = 0 and solve for x. Those are the x intercepts.
They are: 6 and -3

Yes. A quadratic function can have 0, 1, or 2 x-intercepts, and 0, 1, or 2 y-intercepts.
x intercept = 5 y intercept = 15
6
if you are looking at a graph the y intercept is when the graph crosses the y axis and the x intercept is when the graph crosses the x axis. if you have a formula... plug zero in for x to find the y intercept, and plug zero in for y to find the x intercept
