Question

Determine the x- and y-intercepts of the graph of y=−12x−4 . Then plot the intercepts to graph the equation. Line

Answer 1

The x intercept is found when y is 0.
The y intercept is found when x is 0.
So we have to substitute 0 for the x and y variables in 2 separate equations.
y=-12x-4
y=-12(0)-4
y=-4

y=-12x-4
0=-12x-4
4=-12x
-1/3=x

The x intercept is -1/3 and the y intercept is -4.

Answer 2

X intercept- ((-1/3),0)
Y intercept- (0,-4)
