Answer:

The x-intercept is at (2,0).

Explanation:

The x-intercept(s) can be found by setting y to 0 and solving for x.

Your equation is:

4x+2y=8.

To find x-intercept replace y with 0:

4x+2(0)=8

4x =8

Divide both sides by 4:

x =2

The x-intercept is at (2,0).

How to write x-intercept:

(x, 0)

To find the x intercept using the equation you must plug in 0 for y then solve for x:

4x + 2(0) = 8

4x + 0 = 8

4x = 8

4x/4 = 8/4

x = 2

That means that (2, 0) is the x-intercept
