See explanation.

Explanation:

To find $X$ intercept, substitute $0$ for $y$ in the function formula and calculate $x$ :

$3x+40=2$

$3x=2$

$x=2/3$

**The $X$ intercept is $(2/3;0)$ **

To find $Y$ intercept, substitute $0$ for $x$ in the function formula and calculate $y$ :

$30+4y=2$

$4y=2$

$y=1/2$

The $Y$ intercept is $(0;1/2)$

1 Answer

Explanation:

3*x+4*0=23*x+4*0=2

3x=23x=2

x=2/3x=2/3

3*0+4*y=23*0+4*y=2

4y=24y=2

y=1/2y=1/2
