Question

Given the equation below, find the x and y−intercepts by completing the table.What is the problem with using these intercepts to graph the equation in #7?The ordered pair (x, y) you found in #7 is called the

Answer 1

`-4x+2y=0`

In order to find the x-intercept we need to make y=0

`-4x+2(0)=0`

Then we isolate the x

`-4x=0`
`x=0`

x y Ordered Pair type of intercept

0 0 (0,0) x-intercept

Now for the y-intercept we need to make x=0

`-4(0)+2y=0`

we isolate the y

`2y=0`

`y=0`

0 0 (0,0) y-intercept

ANSWER

0 0 (0,0) x-intercept
