Equation of a line whose x-intercept and y-intercept are 4 and 3, respectively, is 3x + 4y = 12. Explanation: Using the intercept form: The equation of a line with x-intercept a and y-intercept b is, x/a + y/b = 11 Substitute the give values, a = 4 and b = 3, x/4 + y/3 = 1 Multiply the entire equation by the LCM of 4 and 3, which is 12, to remove the fractions: 12(x/4) + 12(y/3) = 12(1) 3x + 4y = 12
