For the line that has the equation 4X₁ + 8X₂ = 88, an axis intercept is:
A) (0, 22).
B) (6, 0).
C) (6, 22).
D) (0, 11).

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To find the x-intercept, we set X₂ = 0 and solve for X₁:
4X₁ + 8(0) = 88
4X₁ = 88
X₁ = 22
So the x-intercept is (22,0). 
To find the y-intercept, we set X₁ = 0 and solve for X₂:
4(0) + 8X₂ = 88
8X₂ = 88
X₂ = 11
So the y-intercept is (0,11). 
Therefore, the answer is (0,11) or choice D.
