Answer:


\boxed{\text{(125,0) and 0,275)}}

Explanation:

An intercept is the point at which a line crosses an axis.

We have x- and y-axes, so we have x- and y-intercepts.

x-Intercept

The x-intercept is half-way between 100 and 150.

The two values are 50 units apart. Half-way would be 25 units between them.

The x-intercept is at x = 100 + 25 = 125 or (125,0)

y-Intercept

The y-intercept is half-way between 250 and 300.

Half-way between the two points is 275 units.

The y-intercept is at y = 275 or (0, 275)


\text{The intercepts are at }\boxed{\textbf{(125,0) and 0,275)}}
