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
The points where a graph intersects the x-axis are called x-intercepts, and they occur when the value of y is zero. Conversely, the points where a graph intersects the y-axis are known as y-intercepts, and these occur when the value of x is zero. Each type of intercept represents a solution to the equation of the graph at those respective points.
-- 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 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

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
