Which point on the graph of \(x+6y=36\) is obtained when \(x=0\)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (0, 6)
Substituting \(x=0\) gives \(0+6y=36\), so \(y=6\). Therefore, the point is \((0,6)\), which is the y-intercept of the line. Option C incorrectly takes \(y=36\) without dividing by 6. In an exam, remember: set \(y=0\) to find the x-intercept and \(x=0\) to find the y-intercept.
