Answer:

(3, -4) represents neither the x nor the y-intercepts

Step-by-step explanation:

1- The x-intercept:

The x-intercept is a point that lies exactly on the x-axis. It has zero value for the y-coordinate

Any x-intercept point is usually represented as (a, 0)

2- The y-intercept:

The y-intercept is a point that lies exactly on the y-axis. It has zero value for the x-coordinate

Any y-intercept point is usually represented as (0, b)

3- For the given point (3, -4), we have:

Checking this point, we will find that:

It has x-coordinate value = 3 ...............> cannot y-intercept

It has y-coordinate value = -4 .............> cannot be x-intercept

Therefore, the given point is neither x nor y-intercepts

Hope this helps :)
