1. **Problem:** Find the X- and Y-intercepts of the equation $$\frac{x}{2} + \frac{y}{3} = 1$$.
2. **Formula and rules:**
- X-intercept is found by setting $$y=0$$ and solving for $$x$$.
- Y-intercept is found by setting $$x=0$$ and solving for $$y$$.
3. **Find X-intercept:**
Set $$y=0$$ in the equation:
$$\frac{x}{2} + \frac{0}{3} = 1 \implies \frac{x}{2} = 1$$
Multiply both sides by 2:
$$\cancel{2} \times \frac{x}{\cancel{2}} = 1 \times 2 \implies x = 2$$
4. **Find Y-intercept:**
Set $$x=0$$ in the equation:
$$\frac{0}{2} + \frac{y}{3} = 1 \implies \frac{y}{3} = 1$$
Multiply both sides by 3:
$$\cancel{3} \times \frac{y}{\cancel{3}} = 1 \times 3 \implies y = 3$$
5. **Answer:**
- X-intercept is at the point $$(2, 0)$$.
- Y-intercept is at the point $$(0, 3)$$.
