the Given

[tex]3y=4-\frac{1}{2}x[/tex]

We are to find the gradient and the intercepts on the x and y axes

The general form of equation of a line is

[tex]y=mx+c_{}[/tex]

Simplifying the given equation we have

Dividing through by 3

[tex]y=\frac{4}{3}-\frac{1}{6}x[/tex]

That is

[tex]y=-\frac{1}{6}x+\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

Comparing this equation with the general equation of a line we have

Gradient = -1/6

x-intercept is at y = 0

Therefore

[tex]\begin{gathered} 0=-\frac{1}{6}x+\frac{4}{3} \\ \frac{1}{6}x=\frac{4}{3} \\ 3x=24 \\ x=8 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore x-intercept is (8,0)

y-intercept is at x = 0

Therefore

[tex]\begin{gathered} y=-\frac{1}{6}(0)+\frac{4}{3} \\ y=\frac{4}{3} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, y-intercept = (0,4/3)
