Answer:

x intercept is 8

y intercept is 4

Explanation:

x-intercept -> format is (x, 0)

We know that y=0, so we can substitute that in and solve for x to find the x-intercept. x-2y = x - 2(0) = x = 8. Therefore, the x-intercept is 8.

y-intercept -> format is (0, y)

We know that x=0, so we can substitute that in and solve for y to find the y-intercept. x-2y = 0 - 2y = 2y = 8 -> y =4. Therefore, the y-intercept is 4.

I hope this helps! :)
