We have a line graphed and we have to identify the intercepts.

The y-intercept is the value of the line when it intercepts the y-axis. It is also the value of the line for x=0.

In this case, the y-intercept happens at y=0.4, so the y-intercept is (0, 0.4).

The x-intercept is a similar concept to the y-intercept, but it corresponds to the intersection of the line with the x-axis. It also corresponds to the value of the independent variable x when y=0.

In this case, the line intercepts the x-axis at x=0.3, so the x-intercept is (0.3, 0).

Answer:

y-intercept: (0, 0.4)

x-intercept: (0.3, 0)
