Solution
The given equation y = 3x + 3, means that for any value of x ,
the value of y is three more than thrice of x.
x

y
3(-1) + 3 = 0
3(0) + 3 = 3
3(1) + 3 = 6
3(2) + 3 = 9
Plotting the point (−1, 0) (0, 3) (1, 6) (2, 9), we get, (3 marks)
Therefore, the coordinates of the point of interserction with the axes are (-1, 0) and (0, 3). (1 mark)
