Answer: Choice C

x intercept is (4,0)

y intercept is (0,2)

=======================================================

Work Shown:

To find the x intercept, we plug in y = 0 and solve for x

2x+4y = 8

2x+4(0) = 8

2x+0 = 8

2x = 8

x = 8/2

x = 4

We have x = 4 pair up with y = 0. So we have (x,y) = (4,0) as the x intercept.

This is the location where the graph crosses the x axis.

--------------

The y intercept is a similar story, but we use x = 0 to find y.

2x+4y = 8

2(0)+4y = 8

0+4y = 8

4y = 8

y = 8/4

y = 2

The value x = 0 leads to y = 2. This gets us (x,y) = (0,2) as the y intercept.

This is the location where the graph crosses the y axis.
