Question

Find the y-intercept and x-intercept of the line.

2x - 4y = 13

y-intercept: __

x-intercept: __

Answer 1

2x - 4y = 13

x-intercept: y = 0
2x = 13
x = 13/2
x = 6.5
so x-intercept: (6.5, 0)


y-intercept: x = 0
-4y = 13
y = -13/4
y = -3.25
so y-intercept: (0, -3.25)

answer
x-intercept: (6.5 , 0)
y-intercept: (0 , -3.25)
