Question

Determine the x- and y- intercepts for the graph defined by the given equation.

y = x + 8
a.
x-intercept is (0, 8)
y-intercept is ( -8, 0)
c.
x-intercept is ( -8, 0)
y-intercept is (0, 8)
b.
x-intercept is (0, -8)
y-intercept is ( 8, 0)
d.
x-intercept is ( 8, 0)
y-intercept is (0, -8)


Please select the best answer from the choices provided

Answer 1

c

Explanation:

To find the x-intercept, we set y to 0 and solve for x:

0 = x + 8

x = -8

Therefore, the x-intercept is -8.

To find the y-intercept, we set x to 0 and solve for y:

y = 0 + 8

y = 8

Therefore, the y-intercept is 8.
