Given:

The equation of line is


y=x+3

To find:

The x-intercept and y-intercept.

Solution:

The equation of line is


y=x+3

Putting x=0, we get


y=0+3


y=3

So, the y-intercept is (0,3).

Putting y=0 in the given equation, we get


0=x+3


-3=x

So, the y-intercept is (-3,0).

Therefore, the coordinates of the point where the line intersects the y-axis are (0,3). The coordinates of the point where the line intersects the x-axis are (-3,0).
